Responding to the Scottish Government's announcement of over £200 million of funding via the Innovation and Investment Fund to aid the development of thousands of affordable homes across the country, Jonathan Fair, Chief Executive of home building industry body Homes for Scotland (right) said:

"We welcome the Innovation fund's introduction as the economic and public spending environment means that there is a critical need for new funding models and organisational methods of delivering the many thousands of new homes that our country urgently needs.

"The new fund will therefore help ensure that the Scottish Government benefits from some of the leading edge thinking currently taking place in the housing sector."
