<p>The Government Property Unit is working closely with Oldham Council and others
across Greater Manchester on future plans across the public sector estate. Oldham
Council is part of the Greater Manchester Combined Authority Partnership in the One
Public Estate Programme delivered by Cabinet Office and the Local Government Association.
The GMCA’s plans on what land and property will be disposed are still being developed
and have not yet been identified. The partnership was awarded £250,000 in December
2015 on joining Phase 3 of the programme. Overall it expects to generate £172 million
capital receipts, and create 30,000 new homes and 43,000 new jobs over the next 5
years. GMCA's programme also includes the establishment of a Land Commission, which
will help to deliver 10,000 new homes per year.</p>
