Abstract
The article consists of a description of the Government funded Homes and Communities Agency 'Kickstart' programme to distribute £660 million to house builders and commissioners in order to mitigate some of the early effects on the construction industry, (stalled construction sites around the UK), of the banking crisis in June 2009. The article also describes the issues surrounding the standards required to trigger fund release and the production of the Mayor of Londons' New Housing Design Guide.
