Question to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government:
To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, on how many new build homes in receipt of funding from his Department has work commenced in (a) Batley and Spen constituency, (b) Kirklees and (c) West Yorkshire in each of the last three years.
The table below provides a breakdown of the total number of new build homes that have commenced over the last three years funded by Homes England. Please note that data is not held at constituency level. York is defined as a “non-constituent” local authority in the founding Combined Authority Order 2014, the table therefore provides separate columns to show the data with and without the contribution of York. Further details of Homes England’s delivery data can be found here: https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/housing-statistics-1-april-2019-to-31-march-2020.
