Recommendation 4

4 Deferred Paragraph: 38

Review the potential role of private equity investment in social housing decarbonisation.

Conclusion
Noting that the role of private investment in decarbonisation has so far been limited, we encourage the Government to review what role private investment might play in meeting net zero, noting the advice from witnesses that this could involve the use of equity rather than debt and should result in more homes becoming available to rent, for example by returning homes that could not previously be rented to the market.
Government response summary AI-generated
The government's response discusses the importance of providers explaining regeneration projects to tenants and ensuring their views are considered, referencing existing governance standards and tenant satisfaction measures. It does not address the recommendation to review the role of private investment in social housing decarbonisation.
