Question to the Department for Levelling Up, Housing & Communities:
To ask Her Majesty’s Government, further to the publication of the White Paper <i>Fixing our broken housing market</i>, what specific steps they will take to help councils build more social housing.
This question was answered on 21st February 2017
We are sympathetic to the challenges faced by local authorities, and the Housing White Paper reflects our ambition to support them in building more affordable homes.
My officials will work with local authorities to understand all the options for increasing the supply of affordable housing, considering innovative ideas and bespoke deals with local authorities to support delivery.
