Jersey: The Housing Issue (19 August 2021)
Earlier this year, the Housing Minister Deputy Russell Labey published his Housing Action Plan which included proposals for right sizing, tighter controls on buy to let investors and a fair rents policy.

We spoke to Michael Van Neste who has been at the head of the Jersey Homes Trust for 25 years to discuss what role they can play in the supply of homes, what they need to succeed and whether or not there is a housing crisis in Jersey.
