Answer
The Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government does not collect such information centrally. In 2013/14 a survey was carried out of local authority planning policies on the adoption of the Lifetime Homes standard for new build housing. The survey can be found at: https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/353395/013_Survey_Write_Up_5th_August_2014.pdf
