Commonhold and Leasehold: Reform
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, for what reason the publication of the draft Leasehold and Commonhold Reform Bill was delayed.
- Answer
-
As per our manifesto commitment, this government is taking the steps necessary to finally bring the feudal leasehold system to an end in this Parliament.
Publication of the draft Commonhold and Leasehold Reform Bill was delayed by a matter of weeks to finalise elements of policy and drafting.
The draft Bill was published yesterday, and I refer the hon. Member to the Written Ministerial Statement made (HCWS1278).
