1,111,000 additional homes have been delivered in England since April 2010, and housing supply increased by 217,350 net additional dwellings in 2016-17 – the highest level since 2007-08.

The reforms in our Housing White Paper, together with the measures announced at Autumn Budget, put Government on track to create, fund and drive a housing market which delivers 300,000 homes a year on average by the mid-2020s. We will meet our 2015 commitment to deliver a million homes by the end of 2020 and half a million more by the end of 2022.
