A group of deputies has proposed creating a Committee for Housing in order to help the States accelerate the delivery of homes in Guernsey.
Members of the group said they were launching a plan that would look to set up a new principal committee from the next political term that would have more powers under one political body.
The proposed committee would seek to merge different mandates on housing, currently split between the committees for Employment and Social Security, Environment and Infrastructure and Policy and Resources Committee, into one body.
There were also plans to expand the merger further to include industry capacity, financing and include policy areas under the Guernsey Housing Plan, proposers said.
