Closed Prevent developers & land speculators from “gaming the system” in UK housing.

Closed on

Change the five year land supply to develop the right number of houses in the right places in accordance with a sustainable, relevant and up-to-date Local Plan.
Introduce a local measure of pipeline & delivery of homes to ensure that non-performing developers or land speculators can be identified.

Putting the right homes in the right places:
Where an LPA can openly show a supply of undelivered housing or land that exceeds a six year horizon to cover local population growth, there shall be no rights of appeal on the basis of land supply.
Measuring the pipeline and delivery of homes:
Where new homes aren’t registered with the LPA at a rate in accordance with plans set out and agreed with that LPA, then DCLG shall have the right to declare the developers / land speculators as non-performing.
