To ask the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government, what assessment he has made of recent trends in the level of housebuilding.
Housing starts have almost doubled since 2009. Over 608,000 new homes have been built since April 2010 – there are now 795,000 more homes in England than in 2009.
Trends in housebuilding are published in the quarterly House Building Release.
