Government Floats ‘National, Non-Negotiable’ Affordable Housing Threshold


The government may move to nationally set “non-negotiable” requirements for affordable housing contribution. The policy is mooted in a consultation document on reforms to the developer contribution system as part of the National Planning Policy Framework shake-up. It states: “These changes will provide continuity and certainty for developers in the short term. In the longer term, the government will continue to explore options for going further. “One option could be for contributions to affordable housing and infrastructure to be set nationally, and to be non-negotiable. Download the consultation from the Gov UK website.
