In the year to
June 2019, there were 377,000 full planning consents granted across England,
continuing a pattern of decision making that has offered a substantial
pipeline of sites since the start of 2017. If these consents were fully
implemented as quickly as they were granted, just short of two million homes
could be delivered over the course of five years. But the reality is quite
different, with a sizable gap of around 124,000 homes per annum between
consents granted and homes delivered. The delivery problem, as discussed in
previous Savills planning papers, is partly due to a lack of consents granted
where need is greatest. Read more on the Savills website.
