I am informed that some councils are having difficulty with the affordable housing requirement on smaller major schemes of around 25 to 80 homes, where a developer proposes to include affordable housing, but is unable to find a Registered Provider interested in acquiring these homes on a scheme of that size. This could mean lower affordable housing delivery, particularly in outer London, and risks undermining your Small Sites policy in the London Plan. Could you investigate this issue with Housing and Land colleagues and explore solutions with affordable housing providers to enable such schemes to come forward?
