Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, with reference to paragraph 3.29 of his Department's document, A country that lives within its means: Spending Review 2015, published in July 2015, what proportion of the total amount of public sector land to be disposed he expects to be contributed by each department.

The government has committed to dispose of public sector land with capacity for 150,000 homes by 2020. Meeting this goal is vital for securing the government’s high ambitions to support housing supply and affordability, while prioritising the use of brownfield land.

As part of the Spending Review process HM Treasury will be working with departments on their contributions to the overall target.
