  1. This information is available on our website: Affordable housing statistics (dover.gov.uk). All other figures on affordable housing can be found via Government sources: Live tables on affordable housing supply - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk) (Table 1006-1008).
  2. We work towards the number of affordable homes needed in the district by 2040, as stipulated in the Local Plan 2020-2040. Last year the new Cabinet introduced a new ambition to increase council owned affordable housing by 200 properties per annum.
