Question to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government:
To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, how much funding his Department has allocated to support the delivery new homes in (a) Coventry North East constituency, (b) Coventry, (c) the West Midlands and (d) England in each of the last 10 years.
This Government is committed to delivering homes where they are most needed. We have delivered over 1.5 million new homes between 2010 and 2019, including over 450,000 affordable homes, and delivered over 241,000 additional homes in the latest year – the highest level in over 30 years. Over the last ten years, approximately £157 million has been spent to support the delivery of new homes in Coventry, while over £2.4 billion has been spent in the West Midlands over the same period. £44 billion of new financial support since 2018 (over 5 years) will deliver 300,000 homes every year by the mid-2020s.
