Monsters incorporated

摘要

David Miliband lived up to his reputation for thinking big this week. On Wednesday the communities minister announced a review of the agencies that are responsible for delivering the government's sustainable communities plan. It's a brave decision and a potentially exciting development. The review is to centre on the national delivery agencies - namely the roles of the Housing Corporation, English Partnerships and various functions within the ODPM. The idea is that between now and July, a panel of experts will create a new super-delivery agency - a kind of Environment Agency for housing.
