Residential approvals of M4(2) Accessible and adaptable and M4(3) Wheelchair user dwellings

This report uses data from the Planning London Datahub (PLD) to show the proportion of new-build residential dwellings that meet the access standards M4(2) Accessible and adaptable dwellings and M4(3) Wheelchair user dwellings, as set out in Part M of the Building Regulations, Access to and use of buildings. The data is broken down by borough and year.

Information on individual applications can be found on the Planning London Datahub, or on our Residential Approvals dashboard. Completions can be viewed at Residential Completions dashboard

Please note that compliance with part M of the building regulations is not confirmed at application stage, but must be included as a condition on the decision notice when planning permission is granted. We are currently working with London's planning authorities to ensure that the PLD is being correctly updated with the M4 compliance information at the time the decision is issued. The data is therefore currently assumed to under represent the true picture. The dashboard will automatically update as more data becomes available.
