The National Housing and Planning Advice Unit (NHPAU) was established in response to the pressing issue of housing affordability highlighted by Kate Barker's Review of Housing Supply (2004).
It is a non-departmental public body, sponsored by Communities and Local Government, designated to provide independent advice on affordability matters to the Government, Regional Assemblies and other stakeholders with an interest in the housing market.
