Leasehold
Asked by: Baroness Thornhill (Liberal Democrat - Life peer) Wednesday 4th March 2026 Question to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government: To ask His Majesty's Government, further to the Written Ministerial Statement by Baroness Taylor of Stevenage on 27 January (HLWS1278), when they intend to commence Part 1 of the Leasehold and Freehold Reform Act 2024 on the ban on the grant or assignment of certain long residential leases of houses. Answered by Baroness Taylor of Stevenage - Baroness in Waiting (HM Household) (Whip) This government is committed to ending the feudal leasehold system. We will reinvigorate the commonhold legal framework and ban the use of leasehold for new flats so commonhold can become the default tenure for the ownership of new flats, and we will implement measures in the Leasehold and Freehold Reform Act 2024 to ban new leasehold houses.
