Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, pursuant to the Answer of 21 July 2020 to Question 72766, when the Government plans to respond to the Future Homes Standard consultation.

Answer

In October 2019, we launched the first stage of a two-part consultation on Part L and Part F of the Building Regulations. We proposed an ambitious uplift in the energy efficiency of new homes through the introduction of a Future Homes Standard.

In the Planning for the Future White Paper of August 2020 we stated that we will respond to the Future Homes Standard consultation in full in the autumn.
