Question to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government:
To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, when the decision on future high street fund applications will be published.
We are currently assessing the expressions of interest received and expect to make an announcement on which places are successfully shortlisted and will move to business case development this summer. As set out in the Fund’s prospectus, the final decision on the places which will receive funding will be made by the Secretary of State.
