Your response to my question 2019/19990 defines a studio as “A self-contained flat where there is no separate bedroom.” The minimum internal space standards for new dwellings set out in table 3.1 of your new draft London Plan state that the smallest dwelling allowed is 37 square metres for a one-person one-bedroom flat. In which case, is it right for developers to be building homes with no bedroom?

The scenario from the 2017 Strategic Housing Market Assessment that is based on current evidence finds that approximately 30% of new homes in London should have one bedroom. Your response to my question 2019/19990 shows that 44% of new approvals in 2018/19 were for one-bedroom flats, and 43% of those referable to you. What steps are you taking to reduce this figure, to ensure that a greater proportion of new homes given permission are two-bedroom and family-sized?

I have had a constituent contact me with the following question: “I understand the late-night services finish at New Cross because the rest of the track is owned by Network Rail. Is anything being considered to improve the night service for south Londoners? It appears to me that an extension to Crystal Palace or Croydon would be beneficial to many.”
