Permitted Development Rights: Greater London
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, what assessment he has made of the effect of the changes to Permitted Development Rights that came into effect in May 2013 on the supply of affordable housing in London.
- Answer
-
We are clear that permitted development rights for the change of use to residential are making an important contribution to housing delivery, with over 46,000 homes to rent or buy delivered under the rights in the three years to March 2018. Where additional floor space is created through the exercise of the permitted development rights, community infrastructure levy is payable where an authority has a charging schedule in place.
