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

To ask the Secretary of State for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities, what discussions he has had with the Chancellor of the Exchequer on bringing forward a Community Housing Fund (a) for the financial year 2022-3 or (b) during the next Comprehensive Spending Review.

The Community Housing Fund has provided support for the community-led housing sector since 2016 and the current round of the Fund comes to an end at the end of the current financial year. Discussions on any funding beyond the current financial year form part of wider discussions with the Treasury about how, following the 2021 Spending Review, DLUHC's budget will be deployed across the full range of the Department's programmes.
