Question to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government:

To ask His Majesty's Government how many homes for social rent, affordable rent and shared ownership were promised to planning authorities in England as part of section 106 agreements, but not delivered following viability assessments in each financial year from 2016–17 to 2024–25; whether these figures can be broken down by local authority and compared to the numbers of affordable, social rent and shared ownership properties required by those local authorities’ policies; and how these figures compare to the total numbers of homes built by private developers that do not fit into those three categories.

The requested information is not held by the Department.

The government is committed to strengthening the system of developer contributions to ensure new developments provide necessary affordable homes and infrastructure.
