  • Changes to the requirements for the monitoring of housing land supply and delivery of housing.
  • Changes to the definition and requirements for community-led development and rural exception affordable housing schemes.
  • Additional support for householder level renewable energy infrastructure.
  • Changes to the requirements for changing green belt boundaries.”
