This is the final report from the Good Home Inquiry which examines the problem of unsuitable and low-quality housing. It proposes solutions including a 'Good Home Agency' that provides access to information and advice, and a cross-government housing strategy with a ministerial champion to implement it. It also calls for NHS England, local authorities and Integrated Care Systems (ICS) to include housing as a key part of preventative strategies to improve population health and address health inequalities.
