Question to the Department for Levelling Up, Housing & Communities:
To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, pursuant to the Answer of 20 December 2017 to Question 120655, on public houses, whether his Department plans to collect that information; and if he will make a statement.
As Community Pubs Minister, my focus is on helping communities to get the most from their pub as they see fit, whether it be through acquiring and running their local pub themselves or using it to deliver new community-focussed services such as a shop, post office or library. This includes over 100 pubs which have or will receive direct Government support.
