uin	901095
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 14/06/2021 answer text <p>Our new permitted development rights will boost our high streets and town centres, put vacant buildings back to use, and help to build the homes this country needs. They will create jobs, deliver more housing, and create an easier and more flexible environment for businesses to set up and flourish. Previous permitted development right changes have already delivered over 72,000 new homes over the last 5 years to March 2020. And a survey last year showed three quarters of small and mid-sized property builders expect to make use of the changes to Permitted Development Rights to deliver more housing units.</p> answering member constituency Newark answering member printed Robert Jenrick question first answered 14/06/2021 16:06:50 answering member 4320 label Biography information for Robert Jenrick
