Should home user guides be digital? That’s one of many questions that the Department for Levelling Up, Housing & Communities (DLUHC) wants the answer to as part of its consultation on the Future Homes and Buildings Standards.

Nearly 30 local authorities are set digitalise their planning systems after securing £3.2m-plus funding from the government.
