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 for the purposes of delivering new homes in Coventry in each of the last eight years.

The Government funds affordable housing through the Affordable Homes programme. The information requested is not available for Coventry, as we do not publish funding details at a local level.

The Affordable Homes programme as a whole received £4.5 billion of funding from 2011 - 2015, and a further £2.9 billion of funding from 2015 – 2018.

The 2016 - 2022 Shared Ownership and Affordable Homes programme received £5.7 billion of funding which includes £1 billion of commitments from the 2015 - 2018 programme. There was also an additional £1.4 billion announced at Autumn Statement 2016 and then a further £2 billion announced on 4 October 2017, which brings the total funding for 2016 - 2022 to more than £9 billion.
