The Housing Delivery Test (HDT) has been introduced by the Government as a monitoring tool to demonstrate whether local areas are building enough homes to meet their housing need. The HDT measures net additional homes provided over the past three years against the homes required over the same period.
In response to Central Government's Housing Delivery Test Measurement published in December 2023 we've prepared a Housing Delivery Action Plan. This is our fourth Housing Delivery Action Plan and provides an update to the 2022 Action Plan.
The Action Plan sets out:
- the root causes for housing under-delivery within Oldham (contained in Part 1);
- how the council intends to improve delivery (contained in Part 2).
The Action Plan is intended to be a live document. It will be reviewed and updated as appropriate.
- Housing Delivery Test Action Plan - Part 1
- Housing Delivery Test Action Plan - Part 2
- Housing Delivery Test Action Plan - Part 2 - Appendix 2
