Requested Mon 23 June 2025
Responded Fri 25 July 2025Under the Freedom of Information Act 2000, I am requesting the following information relating to Section 106 affordable housing delivery and the involvement of Registered Providers (RPs):
1. How many completed Section 106 affordable housing units (that is, physically built and ready for occupation) currently remain unsold due to the absence of a contract with a Registered Provider?
2. How many Section 106 affordable housing units that are either under construction or due to commence construction within the next 12 months are not currently under contract with a Registered Provider?
3. In total, how many residential development sites that include Section 106 affordable housing have been delayed or stalled in the past three years due to the inability to secure an RP to acquire the affordable units?
4. Where no RP has agreed to acquire Section 106 affordable housing units, what alternative solutions has the council implemented? (for example, payments in lieu, variations to S106 agreements, direct purchase by the council or other delivery mechanisms).
5. Does the council currently accept the inclusion of cascade mechanisms in newly negotiated Section 106 agreements to address situations where no RP can be secured?
