Conclusion (the committee's words)
The Department told us it is finalising the business case for the NHDF now.13 We asked it how much of the NHDF will be available for unlocking land investments. It told us that it has deliberately set the NHDF to be flexible so it can support a range of interventions that will lead to new homes. As such it has not specified a sum of money that it expects to be used on unlocking land projects.14
