Homes on Public land

  • Reference: 2011/3316
  • Question by: Mike Tuffrey
  • Meeting date: 16 November 2011
Your press release dated 28 October 2011 stated that 'around 3,500 new homes will be built on public land that has been unlocked for development across London'. Please can you provide figures for these homes, broken down by borough, tenure and size?

Net Supply of Housing

  • Reference: 2011/3315
  • Question by: Mike Tuffrey
  • Meeting date: 16 November 2011
How do you respond to statistics released by DCLG on 2 November 2011 which show that London saw a 27 per cent decrease in the net supply of affordable housing over the last year, falling from 24,340 net additional homes in 2009-10 to 17,830 in 2010-11?

Family Housing

  • Reference: 2011/3314
  • Question by: Mike Tuffrey
  • Meeting date: 16 November 2011
The Planning and Housing Committee's recent report on overcrowding in London's social rented sector included the recommendation that the Mayor should aim for 42 per cent of new social rented housing to have four or more bedrooms, reflecting the need set out in the London Strategic Housing Market Assessment. Do you accept that by reducing your current target to ensure that only 36 per cent of new Affordable Rent homes will contain 3 bedrooms or more, you risk ignoring the benefits that come with building more and larger sized family homes?
