answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 25/09/2017 answer text <p>The number of empty homes is at its lowest since records began in 2004. In May 2010 over 300,000 homes in England had been standing empty for longer than 6 months. As of October 2016 the number of long-term empty properties had fallen to 200,145. Local authorities have powers and strong incentives to tackle empty homes. Through the New Homes Bonus they earn the same financial reward for bringing an empty home back into use as building a new one. Councils may also charge up to 150 per cent council tax for homes empty for over two years.</p> answering member constituency Reading West answering member printed Alok Sharma question first answered 25/09/2017 11:21:25 answering member 4014 label Biography information for Sir Alok Sharma previous answer version 11891 answering member constituency Reading West answering member printed Alok Sharma answering member 4014 label Biography information for Sir Alok Sharma

uin	9720
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 25/09/2017 answer text <p>We want to explore how local authorities can build high quality sustainable communities. We are looking to strike housing deals with councils to support ambitious and innovative plans for additional homes in high demand areas, including pro-development councils that wish to build more council housing. We are making good progress and will announce further details in due course.</p><p>We are clear that boosting affordable housing supply is a Government priority. To support this, at Autumn Statement 2016 we announced an £1.4 billion expansion of the Shared Ownership and Affordable Homes Programme (SOAHP) 2016-21 which increased the overall budget to £7.1 billion. So far we have delivered nearly 333,000 new affordable homes since 2010, including 240,000 affordable homes for rent.</p><p>As the Secretary of State announced on 19 September, we will bring forward a Green Paper on social housing in England. This will be a wide-ranging, top-to-bottom review of the issues facing the sector, including quality and safety, tenant rights and voice, and wider issues of place, community and the local economy.</p> answering member constituency Reading West answering member printed Alok Sharma question first answered 25/09/2017 11:07:31 answering member 4014 label Biography information for Sir Alok Sharma

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 19/09/2017 answer text <p>As set out in our Housing White Paper, the Government recognises that this country does not build enough new homes and the National Planning Policy Framework is clear that local authorities, such as the London Borough of Haringey, are expected to identify and plan for the market and affordable housing needs of their area.</p><p>The Mayor has overall responsibility for housing policy and delivery in London and given that homes in London are the most unaffordable in the country, we believe London must take urgent action to plan for more homes and address the lack of delivery.</p><p>At a national level the Government is determined to boost housing supply and to build more affordable homes. To support this, at Autumn Statement 2016 we announced an £1.4 billion expansion of the Shared Ownership and Affordable Homes Programme (SOAHP) 2016-21 which increased the overall budget to £7.1 billion. The Government has agreed a £3.15 billion package of funding for affordable housing in London to deliver at least 90,000 new affordable homes by March 2021. So far we have delivered nearly 333,000 new affordable homes since 2010 with one quarter of overall delivery in London (79,300).</p> answering member constituency Reading West answering member printed Alok Sharma question first answered 19/09/2017 14:53:14 answering member 4014 label Biography information for Sir Alok Sharma
