NDM6612 Gareth
Bennett (South Wales Central)
To
propose that the National Assembly for Wales:
1. Believes that modular housing can be used as an innovative component in
addressing Wales’s housing needs.
2. Calls on the Welsh Government to:
a) undertake a review of the planning process to remove red tape and barriers
to individuals who wish to build their own modular home;
b) establish a housing development corporation to acquire brownfield sites at
existing use value and using compulsory purchase if necessary, where such sites
have been undeveloped for three years or more; and
c) develop a register of such sites and give priority on development to
small-scale modular housing schemes, to incentivise individuals who wish to
build their own home.
