Housing Delivery test action plan
In January 2021, the Government published their third Housing Delivery Test (HDT) results that measure net additional dwellings provided in a local authority area against the homes required. The latest HDT looks at the cumulative housing target achieved for the three-year period of 2017/18 - 2019/20. The results of the test show that the Legacy Corporation has achieved 98% of its cumulative target for the same period. This shows that the Legacy Corporation has passed the last housing delivery test.
In response to the past two HDT results, the Legacy Corporation has prepared two Action Plans, please see below. The progress of the actions set out within the Action Plans will continue to be monitored on annual basis and the result will be reported with the LLDC Authority Monitoring Report.

The Planning Authority Monitoring Report sets out progress towards key Local Plan milestones, information on permitted and completed developments along with details of Community Infrastructure Levy schemes and receipts within the monitoring period.
The most recent information on the monitoring data is provided as an appendix to the LLDC report Town Planning Legacy: Outcomes from the 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games. This document summarises the planning achievements from October 2012 until the transition of planning powers. An executive summary is also available: Town Planning Legacy: Executive Summary.

Brownfield land register
What is the Brownfield Register?
As part of its commitment to the delivery of housing on brownfield land the Government has introduced the requirement within the Brownfield Land Regulations (2017) that each local planning authority publish a Brownfield Land Register by 31 December 2017. Brownfield, or previously developed land is defined by the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF).
There are two relevant parts to the Register. Part 1 should include brownfield sites of over 0.25ha or are capable of supporting at least 5 dwellings, which are considered suitable, available and achievable for housing development, irrespective of their planning status. The inclusion of a site within Part 2 of the Register effectively grants Permission in Principle (PiP) for residential development. Each register must conform to relevant data standards and keep an up to date record of this standard set of information. There is no specific requirement to enter any sites onto Part 2 of the Register.
For more information on the Brownfield Register and Permission in Principle see the relevant pages of the GOV.uk website.
The LLDC Brownfield Register
The LLDC Brownfield Register, as updated in December 2023, has been compiled using the data standard and can be viewed and/or downloaded below:
- LLDC Brownfield Register (PDF Version)
In 2017, three sites were entered onto Part 1 of the register. As part of the annual review, these sites have been reviewed against the local definition of brownfield land. Given that the site LLDC3 commenced on site in 2019 subsequently has been completed, in December 2019 the site was removed from the Register.
Please see below links to maps showing the boundaries. As per the guidance, LLDC has applied a 0.25ha threshold or sites capable of delivering 5 dwellings and more.

The Legacy Corporation is required to review and update the Brownfield Land Register on an annual basis. More information on how the Legacy Corporation met the commitment to review the Brownfield Register can be found below.
