Abstract: Paul Cheshire began to investigate the economic effects of the UK's planning system 40 years ago. Here he draws on a recent public lecture - and panel discussion with Stephen Aldridge, Kate Barker and Simon Wolfson - to explain how two generations of failure to build enough houses have led to considerable damage to employment, productivity and equality.
