The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, what the average grant per unit was for a social rent dwelling in the 2015-18 Affordable Housing Programme.

Answered by Matthew Pennycook

The Affordable Housing Programme for 2015-2018 was extended to 2020 at the Autumn Statement 2014.

However, the programme was interrupted at the 2015 Spending Review and the remaining programme budget was consolidated into the Affordable Homes Programme for 2016-2023.

Delivery data for the 2015-18 programme is set out in the National Audit Office (NAO) Report: The Affordable Homes Programme since 2015. The report can be found on the NAO website here.
