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

To ask Her Majesty's Government what is their assessment of the standards of design used for new homes in large-scale greenfield developments in England since 2010.

The Government is keen to ensure that new homes are well-designed and the National Planning Policy Framework and accompanying Practice Guidance strongly encourages local authorities, working with local partners, to achieve this. However, information about the standard of design for new homes is not collected centrally.
