A review of renewal areas in Wales
Renewal areas have existed for nearly 20 years. Their main purpose is to improve living conditions in areas where there is scope to improve housing and to tackle a wide range of related environmental and socio-economic conditions.
We have completed a review of the renewal areas in Wales.
The final report was published in September 2009.
Aims of the review
We commissioned the review with the following aims:
- To consider the overall effect and impact made by Renewal Areas in Wales;
- To consider the effectiveness of the current bidding and monitoring arrangements; and
- To consider improvement, development and dissemination of good practice.
