The Treasury Select Committee is to hold a hearing on the economics of the housing market.
The Committee, headed by John McFall MP, has invited senior figures from the housing and mortgage industry to discuss how the markets function and where they are headed.
Guests include Fionnuala Earley, chief economist at Nationwide, Bob Pannell, head of research at the Council of Mortgage Lenders, and Simon Rubinsohn, chief economist at the Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors.
The evidence session will take place on Tuesday 14 October at 10.30am.
The housing market has played a major part in the financial crisis that has rocked the world, with financial institutions losing billions of pounds due to bad mortgage loans.
