Sub-Regional Housing Strategy

Sub-Regional Housing Strategy

Using information from the Housing Market Assessment, that was initially undertaken in 2005 updated in 2006 and reviewed in 2008, PUSH developed a Sub-Regional Housing Strategy. The strategy sets out the needs of future households and that of existing households. This strategy is about the local housing needs in the sub-region and how to address these issues:

  • To support economic growth by increasing the supply of housing to deliver a balanced housing market including family and affordable homes.

  • To improve the condition and management and make better use of the existing housing stock.

  • To drive long-term economic prosperity through the principles of sustainable development.

  • To meet the needs of everyone including homeless and vulnerable groups.

It is a strategy for the whole housing market area of PUSH. This is a departure from the Fit For Purpose Housing Strategies already in place, which had a strong focus on the social housing market in individual local authority areas.
