For instance, on top of providing financial support to builders, we are creating a pipeline of opportunities in the sector and have set up a MMC working group to look at addressing barriers to assurance, insurance and finance for MMC homes.</p><p>The group has been exploring a range of opportunities to increase confidence in homes manufactured using these methods to support the uptake of off-site manufacturing technologies across the housing market.</p> answering member constituency North West Hampshire answering member printed Kit Malthouse question first answered 18/07/2019 13:00:44 answering member 4495 label Biography information for Kit Malthouse
