That's the plea from Midlands Simon, as the housing crisis persists.
Local authorities need to be given the power to control funding for housing projects.
The Midlands Simon Community is pleading with the government to reform the system and cut out excessive red tape.
The Franciscan Brothers in Clara have gifted a piece of land to the charity, but they're still waiting for funding approval from the Department of Housing before work can begin.
CEO of Midlands Simon, Tony O'Riordan says the housing crisis will only continue unless practical steps are taken to address the supply shortage:
