We will build 1.5 million high-quality homes over this Parliament and deliver the biggest increase in affordable housing for a generation.
In addition, at the Budget the Chancellor set out details of an immediate one-year cash injection of £500 million to top up the existing Affordable Homes Programme to deliver up to 5,000 new social and affordable homes.
The Renters’ Rights Bill will also improve the experience of private renting in England, providing greater security and stability for tenants while ensuring that landlords can reclaim their properties when the need to.
