Summary of request
Your request
I understand that one of the aims for the London Housing Strategy planned in 2018 was to deliver "genuinely affordable homes". I would like to know if you've had any success on this matter and if the City Hall has some numbers that I could work with.
I would like to get some data about the actions that the City Hall has taken to ensure affordable housing in London, the expected results and the actual results that you got from those actions. The data must be from July 2023 until September 2024.
