Labour has today unveiled its plan to change planning rules. Councils have been told that they must start meeting the Government’s higher house-building target of more than 370,000 a year.
A list of the delivery targets for the number of new homes per year in each local authority area of England has been released.
The goals have been published by the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government, the department headed by the Sir Keir Starmer’s Deputy Prime Ministers, Angela Rayner.
The target for the total number of new homes per year in England has been set at 370,408.
Of these, 87,992 (24 per cent) are in London, 70,681 (19 per cent) are in the South East and 45,429 (12 per cent) are in eastern England.
The rest of the total breaks down as 39,992 (11 per cent) in the South West, 34,678 (9 per cent) in the North West, 29,940 (8 per cent) in the West Midlands, 25,764 (7 per cent) in the East Midlands, 24,957 (7 per cent) in Yorkshire and the Humber and 10,976 (3 per cent) in the North East.
The Tories have called the plan a “war on rural England”.
