On 7 November 2025, my Department published a policy statement setting out the full details of the Social and Affordable Homes Programme as part of our plan to kickstart a decade of social and affordable housing renewal.

The statement accompanies guidance to bidders from Homes England and the Greater London Authority. It can be found on gov.uk here.
