We published Mind the Skills Gap in Autumn 2007. Since its publication, major policy statements and spending commitments have been made that have implications for the future demand and supply of professionals who are central to the delivery of sustainable communities. This policy update is available in the list on right.
These include:
Comprehensive Spending Review (2007)
Housing Green Paper (2007)
Callcutt Review of Housebuilding (2007)
Housing and Regeneration Act (2008)
Review of Sub-national Economic Development and Regeneration (2007).

These documents give an indication of policy objectives and targets, and means of delivery. They have implications for the labour market across the different professions engaged in the delivery of sustainable communities, and in particular those of the housing sector. This study considers the implications of recent policy and spending commitments on labour supply and skills gaps, relative to those published in Mind the Skills Gap.
This has been undertaken in consultation with Sector Skills Councils (SSCs), Regional Centres of Excellence (RCEs), Regional Observatories, Regional Development Agencies (RDAs) and professional institutes.
