Housing surveys and research
The strategic housing role involves local authorities
understanding the relationship between planning and the economy,
and between the regional, sub-regional and local levels of housing
strategy.
It must ensure that
housing is integrated as one of the key components into the
Sustainable Community Strategy, the Local Area Agreement and the
Local Development Framework.
To do this the Housing
Strategy and Development section undertakes and contributes to a
range of surveys and research in order to understand housing need,
housing markets and economic issues that all contribute to building
and contributing to sustainable communities.
