Latest MHCLG stats show annual housing supply in England
amounted to 241,130 net additional homes in 2018-19 – up 9% on 2017-18. But by
those stats there’s still some way for the government to go to reach 300,000
new homes a year by the mid 2020s. The stats show the 241,130 net additions in
2018-19 resulted from 213,660 new build homes, 29,260 gains from change of use
between non-domestic and residential, 5,220 from conversions between houses and
flats, and 940 other gains (caravans, house boats etc.), offset by 7,940
demolitions. According to the stats, 14,107 of the net additions from change of
use were through ‘permitted development rights’, with full planning permission
not required. Download the figures from
the GovUK website.
