Affordable Housing Supply Programme: resource planning assumptions

Planning assumptions for councils to plan their affordable housing supply.


Resource planning assumptions: 2025 to 2026

Council areas across Scotland are to share £700.065 million in grant funding in 2025 to 2026 to deliver more affordable homes. This sum includes an additional £40 million of funding which was announced in April 2024 and a further £40 million announced in September 2025.

The additional £80 million for 2025 to 2026 has been allocated in two tranches, using the most current information at the time – 80% of the funding allocated on the basis of a formula to the five priority local authority areas with the highest numbers of children in temporary accommodation and the remaining 20% allocated on the same allocation basis, but across the remaining 27 local authorities.
