I don't see house building ever not being an issue when large private firms hoover up plots and control the pace at which houses are built. All this is for the purposes of their long term plans of sustainable profit enlargement and house scarcity price increases. Not making nice efficient houses available.
Also, the longer they hold off the more likely any old planning application gets approved just for " more houses have been built". This is why we end up with 700k studio flats and massive estates with only 12 detached mansions with 7 bedrooms.
