Delivering Increased Housing Output

Technical Report for the London Plan Alterations Examination in Public

In April 2006 'Delivering Increased Housing Output' was published to support the Mayor’s housing provision Alterations to the London Plan.

These Alterations were published in October 2005 and are the subject of an Examination in Public, which commences on 13 June 2006. As well as proposing that the annual housing provision target for London is increased from the current 23,000 homes per annum set in the London Plan published in February 2004, to a new target of 31,090 per annum over the ten-year period 2007/8 to 2016/7, new borough targets are also proposed for the same time period.

The report outlines the evidence that the GLA has collected to demonstrate that, subject to appropriate action by other government agencies including appropriate funding support, the proposed target of 31,090 homes per annum is robust, realistic and deliverable. It also highlights that delivery of increased housing supply would be improved if additional planning and housing powers currently under review were given to the Mayor.
