Detail

The department’s annual report and accounts shows achievements in 2014 to 2015 and highlights progress against the DCLG and Homes and Community Agency housing programmes and other key priorities:

  • the government ensured more people had the opportunity to purchase a home of their own, with the number of first time buyers at the highest rate since 2007
  • over 27,000 sales were completed through the Help to Buy: equity loan scheme in the year to March 2015, of which 79% were to first time buyers
  • 170,000 affordable homes between 2011 and 2015, exceeding the target
  • government departments released surplus public sector land with capacity for over 100,000 new homes which exceeded the June 2011 target
  • new City Deals for Greater Manchester, Leeds and Sheffield
  • establishment of the Better Care Fund, which brings together health and social care budgets to provide more integrated services for people in local areas
  • a further real success for the department in 2014 to 2015 was the progress made in turning round the lives of troubled families, with 90% of the programme’s goals achieved by March 2015
