New test shows that councils in England are not providing enough homes
MHCLG | February 22, 2019
A third of councils in England are failing to tackle the housing crisis as they are not delivering the new homes needed and could face sanctions, official figures show. The data from the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government (MHCLG) shows that 108 local authorities failed to meet the 95% delivery target. They are now required to set out action plans to explain why they missed their targets and how they will address the failure.
