Mike Amesbury: To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, what steps he is taking to increase number of local authorities with local plan policies relating to older people’s housing.
Christopher
Pincher: Our planning rules already mean councils must consider the needs
of older people when planning for new homes. In 2019 we published guidance to help councils implement the
National Planning Policy Framework policies. On 19 January 2021 our Written
Ministerial Statement set the expectation that all authorities should have up
to date plans in place by the end of 2023.
