Housebuilding

WMS, leading supplier and installer of underfloor heating systems, has launched a new CPD accredited module to support housebuilders as they navigate the upcoming changes to Part L and seek solutions to meet the new standards.

The WMS ‘Future of Heating – Low Temperature systems and Part L Updates’ module provides an overview of the Part L interim revisions to be regulated in late 2021 and updates planned for 2025, ensuring housebuilders can plan for the future with confidence.

Former Housing Minister Dominic Raab has called for “radical” housing reforms in an attempt to help renters get on the housing ladder and increase the rate of home building.
 
Attacking the Conservative failure to stand up to developers and ensure the construction of enough homes to tackle the housing shortage, Raab advocated a new Help to Buy scheme that would exempt landlords from capital gains tax when they sell their property to existing tenants.
