	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 12/11/2018 answer text <p>Last year the Government’s Clean Growth Strategy, which supports the Industrial Strategy, announced a Local Energy Programme, which supports local actors, community groups, local authorities and combined authorities to develop their own energy strategies and deliver their own energy programmes. Community energy is a key part of clean growth, showing what can happen when groups of people come together to de-carbonise energy in local areas, whilst also investing in these places to bring other economic, or social, benefits. Even small-scale projects can provide a valuable contribution to cutting greenhouse gas emissions.</p><p>The National Planning Policy Framework expects local planning authorities to recognise the responsibility on all communities to contribute to energy generation from renewable or low carbon sources. New tests were introduced into planning in 2015 to give local people the final say on onshore wind planning applications in England, which delivered on a manifesto commitment made by the previous Government. Planning for onshore wind turbines in the UK is devolved outside of England.</p> answering member constituency North West Hampshire answering member printed Kit Malthouse question first answered 12/11/2018 17:16:51 answering member 4495 label Biography information for Kit Malthouse

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 12/11/2018 answer text <p>We have not estimated the number of homes that would be built on a local authority basis, following the abolition of the Housing Revenue Account borrowing cap. We estimate that nationally, local authority delivery will increase to around 10,000 homes per year. Local authorities in South Yorkshire, and elsewhere, are able to use their new borrowing freedom to start building new homes to meet the needs of their communities immediately. We want to see them seize this opportunity and build a new generation of council housing.</p><p>In respect of the additional £2 billion of grant funding for Affordable Housing from 2022 to 2029, it is not possible to determine the distribution across regions until bids have been approved. Homes England do publish allocations data on the current 2016-2022 Affordable Homes Programme outside of London. As of March 2018, 1,361 affordable homes have been allocated grant funding in South Yorkshire.</p><p>Local authorities in South Yorkshire were successful in securing £5.8 million of Housing Infrastructure Fund (HIF) Marginal Viability Funding, which will unlock up to 730 homes. The final funding amounts are subject to a funding clarification process that is currently underway. We are currently working with Sheffield City Regions Combined Authority to develop their HIF Forward Funding bid. We cannot say if this funding will support homes in South Yorkshire until their bid is submitted in the coming months.</p> answering member constituency North West Hampshire answering member printed Kit Malthouse question first answered 12/11/2018 17:14:42 answering member 4495 label Biography information for Kit Malthouse

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 12/11/2018 answer text <p>All social homes should be provided and maintained to a decent standard. Progress in the social sector has been made. In 2016, 13 per cent of homes were non-decent compared with 20 per cent in 2010. We are using the Social Housing Green Paper to consider whether the Decent Homes Standard is demanding enough and delivers the right standards for social housing alongside other tenures. In respect of the East Midlands, in June 2018 we announced a strategic partnership between Homes England and East Midlands Housing, which will see 748 additional affordable homes built in the region by March 2022.</p> answering member constituency North West Hampshire answering member printed Kit Malthouse question first answered 12/11/2018 17:17:53 answering member 4495 label Biography information for Kit Malthouse
