Cash incentives for councils who speed up brown-field house construction.
A set of incentives, provided through the new Housing and Planning Delivery Grant (HPDG), will reward councils which speed up housing supply delivery and maximise the supply of building land in their areas.
The Minister also revealed that 200 more disused public sector sites across the country have been identified as potential sites for housing and could contribute thousands of new homes. This brings the total of brownfield sites being assessed for development suitability to more than 750.
