Question to the Department for Levelling Up, Housing & Communities:
To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, how many social houses are projected to be built in England over the next five years.
This question was answered on 31st January 2020
The Government is committed to increasing the supply of social housing and has made £9 billion available through the Affordable Homes Programme to March 2022 to deliver approximately 250,000 new affordable homes in a wide range of tenures, including at least 12,500 for Social Rent.
We will renew the Affordable Homes Programme, building hundreds of thousands of new homes for a range of people in different places.
