Commission for Co-operative & Mutual Housing - Call for Evidence
The Commission for Co-operative & Mutual Housing is researching co-operative and mutual housing with an intention to produce a report that will be promoted to all political parties in Autumn 2009. As part of CCMH's work, it has launched a call for evidence so that individuals and organisations can feed in views and evidence about co-operative & mutual housing.
