"We can’t yet be certain about the exact date of the next Westminster election but we can be certain that it will be before CIH’s ‘Harrogate’ Conference next year. With all 3 party conferences suggesting that housing is no longer seen as a key political priority for whoever wins I’m clear that we must use the opportunity of the whole sector coming together in one place at one time (June 22 to 24) to set a clear agenda for the new Housing Minister."
“So, while you can expect high calibre speakers from outside our sector, international perspectives and plenty of best practice sharing we are also planning a series of agenda-setting discussion sessions – the culmination of which will be the sector’s offer to and ask of the new government. Please come and be part of this bold new approach – making ‘Harrogate 2010’ the voice of our sector and a voice the new government can’t afford to ignore.” Sarah Webb, Chief Executive, CIH |
