question text	To ask Her Majesty's Government, what steps they are taking to ensure that small and medium sized building firms are able to contribute towards the production of social housing as part of efforts to reduce homelessness and rough sleeping.
tabling member printed	Lord Hylton
uin	HL12031
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 18/12/2018 answer text <p>The Government fully recognises the important role small and medium sized house builders (SME) play in delivering the much needed housing in this country, including contributing to social and affordable housing. Our priorities are to boost housing supply and to build more affordable homes, supporting the different needs of a wide range of people and built by a range developers, including SMEs. This is done through over £9 billion Affordable Homes Programme to March 2022 which will deliver 250,000 new affordable homes of a wide range of tenures, including social rent. Since 2010, we have delivered over 407,000 new affordable homes, including over 293,000 affordable homes for rent.</p><p>SMEs also contribute towards the production of affordable housing, including social housing through section 106 agreements with local authorities. The national policy on developer contributions from small sites seeks to strike a balance between increasing self-build and small-scale housing development, while recognising the role of section 106 in helping to provide affordable housing. We continue to provide support to SMEs to build more homes through the £2.5 billion Home Building Fund’s short-term fund, a £1 billion SME guarantees scheme announced at Budget 2018 and changes to the small sites policy in the National Planning Policy Framework.</p> answering member printed Lord Bourne of Aberystwyth question first answered 18/12/2018 16:17:56 answering member 4282 label Biography information for Lord Bourne of Aberystwyth
