Answer from Hansard

The Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government (Steve Reed)

The Government are committed to building the new homes people need so that we can end the housing crisis that we inherited. The method for calculating local housing need aligns with the Government’s ambition for 1.5 million new homes over the course of this Parliament. That reflects affordability, and there are no plans to change it.
