The Government has insisted it ‘remains confident in its plans to get Britain building' after housebuilders warned ministers will not hit their homes target.

Housing secretary Steve Reed has insisted the Government is ‘absolutely committed' to getting 1.5 million homes built in England by 2029 despite just 117,400 new-build home starts in the year to the end of June 2025.
