Last year saw some big initiatives designed to get housing supply in the capital going again, including lowering the Mayor's affordable threshold, easing some planning requirements, a new Social And Affordable Homes Programme allocation and the recommendation of two sites for London New Towns. More recently, we've seen a move towards "rent convergence" for social housing landlords (see my explainer here). But there were also many factors working against more building. Has there been any useful progress since then? Dan Reast of Centre for London is admirably well-informed.
