Delivering historic levels of housebuilding in London is a critical part of the government’s commitment to build 1.5 million homes within this parliament.

The government fully recognises the scale and breadth of the housing delivery challenge in London. We are committed to working in partnership with the Mayor of London, boroughs and wider partners to significantly increase housing delivery to meet these ambitions.
