The Building the Future Commission report is due to be published tomorrow. The year-long initiative will conclude with a series of recommendations when it is unveiled at a  briefing in London in association with Constructing Excellence.

The report will call for long-term funding for construction and more strategic thinking from government and industry leaders.

Chloë McCulloch, Building editor and the editorial director at Assemble Media Group, which has co-ordinated the commission, said: “This report is the culmination of a 12-month consultation with the industry to find ways to unlock construction’s full potential. It puts the case for long-term investment in our homes, infrastructure, skills and green technology, and we have timed it to target the main political parties as they draw up their election manifestos.”
