The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, whether she plans to use modular housing to increase the amount of available housing stock.

Answered by Matthew Pennycook

Modern Methods of Construction (MMC) can quickly deliver high-quality, energy efficient homes and they provide an important opportunity to improve productivity in the construction sector. MHCLG supports the use of all types of MMC, and we will share our approach to increase its use in housebuilding as part of the Government’s wider housing strategy.
