The new National Planning Policy Framework that was published on 17 August 2026 strengthened support for community-led housing, providing greater clarity on how community-led exception sites should be supported and strengthening requirements for development to deliver an appropriate mix of tenures that meets the needs of different groups.

I otherwise refer the hon. Member to the answer given to Question UIN 129417 on 27 April 2026.
