Spring stocktake

There are gaps in the housing dataset. Some data is not collected, other data is exposed to privacy and cyber vulnerabilities. One data set that would help inform policy-makers is the level of unmet demand for adequate housing. From thermal comfort to climate-adaptation, homelessness to structural defects, overcrowding to accessibility, we're going to design a mission to source the data, the data access principles and the things we can do to fill the gaps while we do it.
