Question to the Department for Levelling Up, Housing & Communities:
To ask the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government, pursuant to the Answer of 8 June 2015 to Question 1079, if the Government will make an estimate of the vacancy rates of high-value council homes.
Through the Local Government Transparency Code we require all councils to be more transparent about the value of their social housing stock.
The Department will outline our proposals for the Housing Bill when it is published.
