Question
to the Department for Business, Innovation, Science and Trade:
To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Innovation, Science and Trade, what assessment his Department has made of the potential impact of its consultation entitled Modernising Corporate Reporting to Support Long-term Economic Growth on the work of the Small Business Regulatory Taskforce.
Answered by Blair McDougall
- Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State (Department for Business, Innovation, Science and Trade) (Jointly with the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero)
The Modernising Corporate Reporting consultation and the Small Business Regulatory Taskforce are complementary, both contributing to the Government’s wider objective of reducing regulatory burdens on business. The consultation is seeking evidence on the costs, benefits and practical impacts of potential reforms including for SMEs.
As consultation proposals are developed, the Government will consider their impacts on business and undertake appropriate assessment before implementation. This will ensure that reforms are evidence-based and proportionate while supporting the Government’s wider regulatory reform objectives.

Question
to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government:
To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, in which month she expects to publish the summary of responses to the Call for Evidence on park home sale commission payments.
Answered by Matthew Pennycook
- Minister of State (Housing, Communities and Local Government)
The government recognise that there are longstanding concerns about the requirement to pay site owners a commission upon sale of a park home.
The previous government published a report in June 2022 on the impact of a change in the maximum park home sale commission. It can be found on gov.uk here.
On 5 March 2026, my Department published a 12-week call for evidence regarding the rationale for the payment of a commission. It can be found on gov.uk here.
We are currently analysing the feedback received and remain committed to publishing a detailed summary of responses ahead of announcing the government's final position by the end of the year.
