The Self-Build and Custom Housebuilding Act 2015 places a duty on local councils in England to keep and have regard to a register of people who are interested in self-build or custom build projects in their area.

This register will help inform the council of the level of demand for self-build and custom build plots in the borough and help the council develop a strategy for matching people to plots in their area.

The Forum will work with the Tower Hamlets Self-Build Association, established to liaise with the Council regarding the release of public land for self-build housing.
