(asked on 19th September 2023) - View Source
Question to the Department for Levelling Up, Housing & Communities:
To ask the Secretary of State for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities, what assessment he has made of the potential impact of changes to the National Planning Policy Framework on the supply of new homes.
This question was answered on 16th October 2023
We remain committed to delivering 300,000 new homes per year and we are investing £11.5 billion to build the affordable, quality homes this country needs.
The proposed changes to the planning system are designed to support areas to get more local plans in place and therefore deliver more housing, and we will set out our response to the consultation later in the autumn.
