This will be achieved by balancing and encouraging the creation of an appropriate mix of homes and tenure types on all new housing developments.  The details of this policy are explained in the  Councils Housing Strategy 2005 – 2010 (PDF 772kb) “Building communities : Meeting Needs”

However, the Council cannot meet all the affordable housing plans alone and works closely with a wide variety of other people and organisations to enable the development of an increased supply of affordable housing. These include local housing developers, the Partnership in Urban South Hampshire ( PUSH )http://www.push.gov.uk/ , Hampshire County Council, http://www.hants.gov.uk/ and the housing corporation, http://www.housingcorp.gov.uk/ and local housing associations.
