Question to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government:

To ask the Secretary of State for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities, whether he has made an assessment of the potential merits of bringing forward legislative proposals to extend protections under schedule 8 of the Building Safety Act 2023 to leaseholders irrespective of when service charge demands were issued.

The leaseholder protections in the Building Safety Act 2022 already apply irrespective of when service charge demands were issued.
