Answer

The Housing Supply Strategy will be implemented through a series of short-term Action Plans, and I intend to publish the first Action Plan shortly.

The Action Plan will detail the cross-Executive actions to be delivered over the first 3 years of the Strategy and will provide details on the timeframe and scope for the first annual review which, when published, will provide detail progress on all actions at that stage.

It is my intention that a final review report will also be published at the end of the Plan period (2028), which will detail completion of actions and include an assessment of progress against the Strategy indicators.
