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

To ask the Secretary of State for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities, whether he plans to take steps to help tackle large increases in service charges for (a) leaseholders and (b) social housing tenants.

We are committed to protecting leaseholders, ensuring service charges are transparent and removing barriers to challenge when things go wrong.

I refer the Hon. Member to the Autumn Statement’s announcement on the cap on social rents.
