Housing: Construction
- Question
-
What plans his Department has to increase the number of homes built on brownfield land.
- Answer
-
We are absolutely committed to building more houses in the right places – that is why we are prioritising brownfield sites in our towns and cities that already have the infrastructure in place to support households.
We have set out our intention to introduce a ‘presumption in favour of brownfield development’ to make it harder to block building on brownfield sites. We are currently consulting on this and will report back in due course.
