London will retain its housebuilding targets despite the fact that they are being dropped in the rest of the country, the capital's deputy mayor said today.
Regionally-set housebuilding goals have been dropped as part of the coalition government’s revocation of regional spatial strategies. But, speaking at Regeneration & Renewal’s National Regeneration Summit, Greater London Authority deputy mayor Sir Simon Milton said that they would remain in the capital. "The affordability of housing is a big issue," he said. "It would be bizarre for [the mayor] not to be concerned about the production of housing".
However, he said the mayor’s team disagreed with the methodology that had been used to produce housing targets for some boroughs under the last government, and that revisions to those borough’s figures would be presented to the ongoing public inquiry into the draft London plan.
