Definitely. Our elderly population is increasing and there is a high demand for adaptations within the current housing stock due to disability. However, the council's costs for these services could be reduced if it insisted that a percentage of new builds were already adapted/adaptable. This would also help to reduce size/cost for care packages if people could stay independent longer.
The percentage of these properties should be 1 per 50 homes.
