Council Housing Construction – PWA

Jim Fitzpatrick MP: To ask the Secretary of State for CLG whether the Government plans to bring forward a third round of proposals for funding for new council homes.
Andrew Stunell MP: We have no plans to continue a funding programme exclusively for the provision of new council houses. Local authorities are however free to bid for support from the National Affordable Housing Programme once all the funds available in the current Local Authority New Build programme have been allocated. The Government are committed to reviewing the unfair Housing Revenue Account, including its implications for council housebuilding.
