England’s stock of affordable homes grew by its lowest
level since 1992, new government figures show. The total amount of net
additions to the affordable housing stock fell to 32,110 in 2015/16, according
to the affordable housing supply live tables from the CLG. The number of
additional affordable homes fell nearly 52% between 2015/16 and the previous
year. However, this drop is likely largely a consequence of the movement
between funding programmes. The final year of the Affordable Homes Programme
2011/15 saw a high volume of completions, as providers raced to finish schemes
before the deadline. Download the figures from the GovUK website.
