(2) how many London boroughs have (a) unitary development plans and (b) revised unitary development plans specifying in a policy what proportion of affordable housing should be provided on suitable sites. [92130]

Mr. McNulty

Of the thirty three London Boroughs nineteen have adopted or revised but not yet adopted unitary development plans specifying in policy what proportion of affordable housing should be provided. Three have the proportion specified in supporting text. The proportions are typically expressed as ranges, minima or borough averages rather than a requirement for each site.
