answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 12/10/2018 answer text <p>The Prime Minister announced on 3 October at the Conservative Party Conference that the caps on local authorities borrowing to fund the construction of new homes will be removed, enabling them to fund a new generation of council housing that meets the needs of local people. This ground breaking announcement will enable councils to build up to 10,000 homes per year in the short term, with potential to go even further over time.</p><p>In addition, local authorities can bid alongside housing associations for the £9 billion Affordable Homes Programme to build affordable homes. We are also providing a longer term rent deal for 5 years from 2020 to provide local authorities with a stable investment environment to deliver new homes and we have consulted on options for allowing local authorities more flexibility in the use of their Right to Buy receipts, including extending the time limit for spending Right to Buy receipts from three years to five years for existing receipts.</p> answering member constituency North West Hampshire answering member printed Kit Malthouse question first answered 12/10/2018 14:19:15 answering member 4495 label Biography information for Kit Malthouse
