Ateb
Atebwyd gan Cabinet Minister for Local Government, Housing and Planning (Siân Gwenllian)
The demand-led Empty Homes Grant forms an important role in bringing private homes back into use in Wales. This is why I was pleased to recently extend the scheme for new applications to 31 March 2027. I am also pleased that all local authorities have now agreed to join the scheme in this financial year, with Cardiff amongst those having joined.
As of August 2026, the scheme has brought a total of 657 homes back into use since inception. This can be broken down by local authority as follows:
