Thousands of homes waiting to be built.
Don't blame the planning system.
Research reveals that there are nearly 400,000 homes in England which have planning permission but haven't been built.The study was commissioned by the Local Government Association and shows that there has been little progress to reduce the backlog, with only 6,000 homes built over the past year.Developers are also now putting in fewer planning applications and taking longer to complete work on site.
