Written Answers
Travellers: Caravan Sites
Asked by: Sarah Dyke (Liberal Democrat - Glastonbury and Somerton)
Wednesday 7th May 2025

Question to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government:

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, whether consumer standards set by the Regulator for Social Housing apply to socially rented residential pitches on local authority (a) owned and (b) managed Gypsy and Traveller sites.

Answered by Matthew Pennycook - Minister of State (Housing, Communities and Local Government)

All registered providers of social housing, including local authorities, are required to deliver the outcomes of the consumer standards set by the independent Regulator of Social Housing (‘the regulator’).

The regulatory standards apply to social housing as defined by the Housing and Regeneration Act (2008). The Act defines low-cost rental accommodation as accommodation rented below market rate and made available to those whose needs may not be adequately served by the commercial market.

Socially rented residential homes on local authority owned or managed Gypsy and Traveller sites will be subject to the regulator’s consumer standards if they meet the definition of social housing under the Act.

Select Committee Inquiry
20 May 2025
Preventing waste and enabling a circular economy
Environment, Food and Rural Affairs Committee (Select)

Submit Evidence (by 18 Jun 2025)


Much of the UK economy is still linear, based on the principles of using and disposing of products and the resources used to make them. This wastage leads to widespread environmental pollution and the continual and unsustainable need to extract finite resources.

UK and devolved governments have committed to developing a more circular economy which means reducing consumption and minimising waste through reuse, repair and recycling. It has launched a circular economy taskforce and has committed to further circular economy strategies.

This long-term thematic inquiry will scrutinise the progress of the UK government in bringing about a more circular economy, and the work of key regulators to ensure that waste is sustainably managed. The Committee will call for evidence on a regular basis and produce iterative and focused reports throughout the inquiry.

Topics for scrutiny may include, but are not limited to:

  • packaging reforms such as Extended Producer Responsibility, Deposit Return Schemes, Simpler recycling and the plastic packaging tax;
  • reducing the use of single use items and encouraging more ecological product designs;
  • international cooperation and waste exports;
  • encouraging more sustainable product imports;
  • growing domestic reuse, repair and recycling industries;
  • developing circular economies across different sectors, including agriculture and organic wastes such as food;
  • efforts to lessen the environmental impact and use of landfill and incineration;
  • tackling waste crime.

If you have information or evidence which may be of interest to the Committee, please contact: efracom@parliament.uk
