Housing Delivery Test Action Plan

The council has updated its Housing Delivery Test Action Plan (HDTAP). This considers the main barriers to building more houses within Medway.

The latest Housing Delivery Test (HDT) results were published in December 2023. Medway scored 79% of delivery compared with the defined housing requirement.

The action plan reviews the:

  • work the council is doing to deliver housing within Medway
  • major causes of under delivery
  • actions needed to increase the amount and rate of delivery of new homes.

Implementation of the action plan will be monitored, with more work being done to understand how to increase housebuilding.

The HDTAP was approved by cabinet on 11 June 2024.
