<p>Permitted development rights for change of use to residential are making an important
contribution to the delivery of new homes and have delivered over 46,000 homes to
buy or rent in the three years to March 2018. We do not collect information on how
many are sold or rented, or on who subsequently lives in them.</p><p>As announced
in the written ministerial statement made on 13 March 2019, HCWS1408, we will continue
to consider the design of a permitted development right to allow commercial buildings
to be demolished and replaced with homes. We also intend to review permitted development
rights for conversion of buildings to residential use in respect of the quality standard
of homes delivered.</p>
