Welcome to the latest version of Profile. We are always striving for relevance with this literature together with a mixture of showcasing and being informative on industry issues facing us all.

In this edition, I believe we have managed to pull it off as the articles cover schools, housing, energy and sustainability, so enjoy the read and if you have any views or comments we are always pleased to see them.

Well, the election is over and the expected result has occurred. We will now enter a period of 'fiscal tightening of belts' but we should not be afraid of this, because world markets will be looking closely at us and expecting us to be acting in a prudent way for the lifetime of this parliament. The trick for Cameron and his new friend will be to avoid damaging strikes and unrest in the public sector when he aligns it with what the private sector has endured these past two years or so. If these two matters can be achieved then our triple A rating will be preserved and inward investment will continue which will fuel a period of sustainable growth in the medium to long term.

Finally, my thanks to Matt Kitson for his guest article on sustainable master planning and if you wish to have a guest slot in future publications, please make contact with Sam McMillen.
