Former PwC partner to lead Homes England review

Tony Poulter has been appointed to review Homes England. Homes England is one of 40 government Arm’s Length Bodies chosen for a routine review as part of the Cabinet Office’s Public Bodies Review programme. The government says the aim of the programme is to ensure these organisations are delivering for UK taxpayers. Poulter (pictured) will speak to stakeholders including developers, government and councils to examine Homes England’s current ways of working, focusing on its structure, compliance and outcomes for stakeholders and customers. How the Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities works with Homes England will also be reviewed. Poulter is a non-executive member of the Department for Transport board. He was previously a partner at management consultancy PwC for 26 years, specialising in infrastructure finance and business consulting globally. Prior to that, he held several key positions including review team leader at the UK Ministry of Defence and panel member of the major projects review group at the Cabinet Office.
