Conservatives pledge to scrap Environment Agency and Natural England
The plan also includes scrapping net zero rules on housebuilding, which the party says would cut the price of a new home by £50,000.
The Guardian Business reports that the Conservatives plan to announce measures they say would lower the cost of a new home by £50,000.
The proposal includes scrapping net zero regulations on housebuilding, along with abolishing affordable homes and community funding rules.
The outlet says shadow chancellor Andrew Griffith will also pledge to scrap Natural England and the Environment Agency as part of a broader plan to streamline regulations that it argues can slow infrastructure and housebuilding.
The announcements, scheduled for Monday, are positioned as a shift toward focusing on the economy, an area where the party says it has made limited progress.
