The data in this release are used by DLUHC to monitor delivery of affordable homes as part of the DLUHC business plan. Homes England uses the data to measure progress towards commitments made in its published Strategic Plan and its Annual Business Plan. Local authorities also use the data when compiling their annual return to DLUHC for the purpose of calculating the enhancement for affordable housing under the New Homes Bonus (NHB), a grant for local authorities to incentivise new housing supply.
