Commonhold and Leasehold: Reform
(asked on 20th January 2026) - View Source
Question to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government:
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.
This question was answered on 28th January 2026
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).
