A packed programme bursting at the seams, with a look at UK housing supply, credit for manufacturing, inflation in China as well as the Eurozone and markets.

The housing market will be plunged into "crisis"' without government action to address the "chronic under-supply of homes", the National Housing Federation has warned. Simon Nunn, assistant director of the NHF joins us. Britain's manufacturers are finally finding it easier to get their hands on credit, the industry's representatives say, while also calling for a regulatory intervention to improve the flow of lending still further. We get the latest from Lee Hopley, chief economist at the EEF. It's been over a month since a second bailout package worth around 拢96 billion was agreed for Greece. But it still hasn't been implemented. We speak to Sharon Bowles, chair of the European Parliament's Economic and Monetary Affairs Committee. Finally we look at the effects of Chinese inflation and the markets.
