In December 2024, Keir Starmer outlined a comprehensive government-wide plan for change featuring measurable milestones across key sectors including housing, the NHS, living standards, crime, education, and energy.
In the housing sector, the government set a target to build 1.5 million safe and decent homes in England by 2029, measured by net additional dwellings. However, there was no annual target specified. The current pace of construction stands at around 200,000 homes per year, which is slower than the final years of the previous Conservative government.
Progress in housing construction will be tracked using a housebuilding tracker that utilizes Energy Performance Certificates (EPC) data to monitor developments.
