GLA Land and Property Limited (GLAP) is the Greater London
Authority's (GLA) wholly owned land and property company.
Established in 2012, GLAP's role is to support the Mayor's
housing, regeneration and economic development objectives through
the management, development and disposal of public land.[1] GLAP also
received a £300 million loan from the GLA in 2013.[2]
GLAP manages approximately 635 hectares of land across London and
reports an ambition to support delivery of around 68,000 homes
across GLAP land and joint venture interests over the next 25
years.[3]
In 2024-25, GLAP reported that 29,156 homes had been delivered or
were on site since 2016, representing around 43 per cent of the
68,000-home forecast. Of these 29,156 homes, 15,135 have been
completed.[4][5]
However, progress has slowed, and despite a 25-year target, at
the current rate of delivery these homes will not be completed
this century.
Tomorrow, the London Assembly Budget and
Performance Committee will meet to scrutinise the
delivery of housing through GLAP, and progress on repayment of
the £300m loan from the GLA, which is years behind schedule.
Guests include:
-
David Bellamy, Mayor's Chief of Staff, GLA
-
Tim Steer, Executive Director, Housing and
Land, GLA
-
Sarah Birt, Interim Assistant Director, Land
& Development, GLA
-
Adam Barrett, Commercial Finance Director,
GLAP
The meeting will take place in the Chamber at City Hall on
Thursday 9 July 2026 at
10am.
