Question to the Department for Levelling Up, Housing & Communities:

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, whether he has set a date for issuing Part L of the Building Regulations and the Future Homes Standard.

We have committed to review the roadmap to the Future Homes Standard to ensure that implementation takes place to the shortest possible timeline. The Department has already consulted on a meaningful and achievable interim increase to the energy efficiency standards for new homes as a first step towards the Future Homes Standard. We will be publishing the Government response to this consultation as soon as possible, which will include a roadmap to the Future Homes Standard.
