Housing delivery test action plan
The Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government (MHCLG) first introduced the Housing Delivery Test (HDT) in 2018.
The HDT assesses the number of homes built in local authority areas over the previous three years. It also compares these against local housing requirements.
In its role as Local Planning Authority the Council failed to meet delivery targets and therefore the action plan sets out measures to help increase delivery.
MHCLG produce the HDT results annually and depending on the next results may need further action taken by the Council.
