Housing Corporation
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Housing Corporation is the Non-departmental public body that funds and regulates housing associations in England. It was established by the Housing Act 1964.
Due to this role and the requirement upon housing associations to achieve EcoHomes standards, the Housing Corporation is indirectly responsible for building the greatest number of environmentally-friendly homes in the UK. Eco-performance standards are to be raised further for grants provided in 2008-2010, when compliance exceeding Level 3 of the new Code for Sustainable Homes will be required [1].
