Board directors currently being sought for new body
It's hoped a housing agency will provide continuity even when there is political change in the Department of Infrastructure.
Board directors are currently being sought for the new body, which is being set up in a bid to accelerate the construction of affordable homes.
Housing has seen a number of political leads during the current administration, with three MHKs holding the role of infrastructure minister and two chairs of the housing board since October 2021.
Current minister Michelle Haywood believes the new approach will provide stability:
