[https://www.gov.uk/guidance/housing-statistics-and-england-housing-survey-glossary/a-to-z Housing statistics and English Housing Survey, glossary], published by the Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities in 2019, defines affordable rent as: ‘A form of social housing, introduced in 2011 as the main type of affordable housing supply. It may only be delivered with grant through the Affordable Homes Programme 2011-15 and other associated and subsequent programmes or without grant by local authority and other providers, where a contract or confirmation of the ability to charge an affordable rent is in place. Affordable rented homes are let by local authorities or private registered providers of social housing to households who are eligible for social rented housing. Affordable rent is subject to rent controls that require a rent of up to 80% of the local market rent (including service charges, where applicable).’
