Homes England

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, with reference to the Deputy Prime Minister's speech at UK Real Estate and Infrastructure Forum, on 20 May 2025, what steps her Department plans to take to move Homes England to a more regionalised model.

Answered by Matthew Pennycook

As set out in my letter to Homes England’s Chair on 30 September 2024, which can be found on gov.uk here, Homes England is currently working with my Department to progress the rapid implementation of a new Target Operating Model to ensure Homes England has a sustainable, regional and place-based operating model to reflect the shifting focus to delivering successful placemaking and align with our wider devolution agenda.

Further detail on Homes England's approach to regional working will be set out in a revised Strategic Plan which will be published later this year.
