The 91 applications were a part of a wider 152 applications, or a total of 33,670 units.<\/p>\n<p>253 applications were also concerned with remediating existing buildings, or 22,304 units at the Gateway 2 stage. As of the latest update, 82 decisions have been made, while 83 new cases have been received, putting the total of live cases at 280.<\/p>\n<p>At the time, the BSR update said: \u201cThis projection is based on experience to date, dependent on continued progress and, in many cases, relevant and timely information being provided by applicants.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe total number of identified \u2018blockers\u2019 is greater than the number of applications, as many cases face multiple impediments [such as] staff availability, complex decisions, information needs from applicant or BSR.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Regarding criticisms of the Regulator taking too long to make decisions, an update said: \u201cWe acknowledge there are delays in processing applications and we continue to introduce improvements.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRecent recruitment activity is having a positive impact on productivity with the number of decisions doubling (month on month) overall since March.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSignificantly, the number of decisions made are now exceeding new applications received.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDedicated teams are now in place to process new-build and remediation applications, and we are introducing a new Innovation Unit which will focus on fast-tracking new-build applications through the system.\u201d<\/p>\n<div
