Local authorities are responsible for allocating social housing and are best placed to manage demand. By law they must give 'reasonable preference' to specific groups, including people who are homeless, in overcrowded housing or who need to move for medical or welfare reasons. This is to ensure that the priority for social housing goes to those who need it most. These rules support larger families by giving priority to people who are in overcrowded housing.<\/p>

Since 2010, we have delivered over 632,600 new affordable homes, including over 441,612 affordable homes for rent, of which over 162,800 homes for social rent.

The Government\u2019s Cycling and Walking Investment Strategy, published in April 2017, summarised the Government\u2019s overall strategy to make cycling and walking the natural choice for shorter journeys. The measures set out in the Strategy, such as the investment that is being made in improved cycle infrastructure, will help to increase all forms of cycling, including cycling on an electrically assisted pedal cycle (or \u201ce-bike\u201d).
