Consultation description

Housing supply; net additional dwellings statistics is the department’s main officially published measure of housing supply and currently no revisions to these figures are permitted after they have been published, except every 10 years at the time of the new census.

We are proposing to change this policy to have more frequent annual revisions to this release which will improve the accuracy of previous years estimates of housing supply.
