The UK government has announced measures against rogue landlords, limiting the benefits they can receive for substandard properties. This is part of a £300 million initiative to build 2,800 affordable homes in the coming year. Councils are also set to receive £50 million to create 250 homes, helping families avoid inadequate temporary housing. The government plans to introduce a licensing scheme with stricter standards soon. However, concerns exist over meeting housing targets due to a skilled worker shortage in the construction sector.
