answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 18/03/2022 answer text <p>Our £11.5 billion Affordable Homes Programme (AHP) will provide up to 180,000 new homes across the country, should economic conditions allow. The Programme supports a wide range of affordable housing, including social housing for homes of all sizes.</p><p>Local authorities should determine the types of social housing needed for their communities. In March 2020 Government set out a clear expectation that local planning authorities must have an up-to-date plan in place by the end of 2023. This will ensure that they will be in the best possible position to adapt to the new plan-making system, further details on which we will set out in due course. Having an effective, up to date plan in place is essential to planning for and meeting housing requirements; in ways that make good use of land and result in well-designed and attractive places to live. The Government expects local authorities to work together to plan for and deliver the housing and infrastructure our communities need.</p> answering member constituency Pudsey answering member printed Stuart Andrew question first answered 18/03/2022 14:55:31 answering member 4032 label Biography information for Stuart Andrew

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 16/03/2022 answer text <p>Details of planned reforms to planning laws for mobile network infrastructure are set out in the Government Response to a technical consultation on changes to permitted development rights for electronic communications infrastructure. This response was published alongside the press release on 7 March 2022.</p><p>The response sets out that all new ground-based masts will require prior approval of the local planning authority or, for larger masts, full planning permission. Through this process the local authority will consult local communities to ensure their considerations on siting and design are taken into account. Prior approval is also required for larger alterations or deployment.</p><p>Alongside the government response, we published a new Code of Practice for wireless network development. which sets out guidance for Mobile Network Operators and infrastructure providers, their agents and contractors, local planning authorities, and all other relevant stakeholders in England. This provides a stronger focus on the siting and design of wireless infrastructure and the process for engaging with local authorities and communities.</p> answering member constituency Pudsey answering member printed Stuart Andrew question first answered 16/03/2022 17:42:15 answering member 4032 label Biography information for Stuart Andrew
