Affordable Housing: Construction
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, how many affordable homes were (a) started and (b) completed in England between 2010-11 and 2023-24.
Answered by Alex Norris
The number of affordable housing starts and completions is available in live table 1000 here Live tables on affordable housing supply - GOV.UK.
The number of completions is available since 1991-92. The department started publishing the number of starts in 2015-16. However, starts not reported via Homes England or the Greater London Authority only started being collected in 2016-17 and are collected on a voluntary basis. This means 2015-16 data does not include these data and subsequent years may still be under reporting it.
