Housing: Construction
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, how many existing planning permissions there are where building has not yet started.
Answered by Matthew Pennycook
I refer the Rt Hon Member to details on existing planning permissions and planning application statistics, which can be found at the following link.
Please note that i) time lags in building can affect the number of homes built in a particular period; and ii) the methodology used in the source above cannot guarantee that all double counting of permissions is removed.
