answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 01/05/2019 answer text <p>The Review of Build Out Rates chaired by the Rt Hon Sir Oliver Letwin MP reported on 29 October 2018. It found no evidence that speculative land banking is part of the business model for major house-builders, or that it explains slow build-out rates. The review concluded that greater differentiation in types and tenures of new homes would increase market absorption and stimulate an increase in build-out rates. This Government has put in place extensive incentives and assistance to encourage house-building, especially on brownfield land, to support the housing policies in our revised National Planning Policy Framework.</p> answering member constituency North West Hampshire answering member printed Kit Malthouse question first answered 01/05/2019 15:46:05 answering member 4495 label Biography information for Kit Malthouse

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 09/04/2019 answer text <p>The revised National Planning Policy Framework requires local authorities to set clear policy requirements for infrastructure through plans. These policies should be informed by evidence on infrastructure need and cost and viability assessments. At an early stage in the plan-making process, authorities will need to work alongside infrastructure providers to identify infrastructure requirements, including for education, health, highways and retail and leisure, and the opportunities for addressing these.</p><p>Local planning authorities use the Community Infrastructure Levy and Section 106 planning obligations to require developers to contribute towards the provision and maintenance of required infrastructure as a result of new housing developments.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency North West Hampshire answering member printed Kit Malthouse question first answered 09/04/2019 12:59:49 answering member 4495 label Biography information for Kit Malthouse

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 10/04/2019 answer text <p>The Government's expectations are set out in the National Planning Policy Framework. This asks local authorities to optimise density in the development of towns, and to recognise the character and beauty of the countryside. Plans should focus development on sustainable locations. The Framework also makes clear that, in rural areas, housing should be located where it will enhance or maintain the vitality of rural communities.</p><p>It is for local authorities to use their plans to determine the extent of settlements, and say where essential development should go, and where restraint, such as Green Belt, is needed. One of the purposes of Green Belt is to prevent neighbouring towns merging into one another. In Green Belt, most types of new housing are to be treated as inappropriate development, and refused planning permission except in very special circumstances.</p> answering member constituency North West Hampshire answering member printed Kit Malthouse question first answered 10/04/2019 13:54:04 answering member 4495 label Biography information for Kit Malthouse
