Construction Job Threat
Government spending cuts could lead to thousands of construction job losses and longer housing waiting lists, a campaign group has warned.
It is believed that The National Housing Federation said the housing budget could be cut by up to 32% over four years. This is bad news for constructuion jobs in general and the news will not be greeted with open arms.
The damage of this could lead to 200,000 construction jobs being lost or not created, and 350,000 people being added to housing waiting lists in England, it said. All of this depends on the government however who are set to announce cuts in the Budget on Tuesday.
