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

To ask the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government, if he will appoint a representative of the Leasehold Knowledge Partnership to the board of the Leasehold Advisory Service.

It is desirable for Board members of the Leasehold Advisory Service to have knowledge or experience of the housing sector, particularly issues that affect residential leasehold sector. This was included within the last public recruitment exercise for Board members and those appointed had relevant experience. There is no current or planned requirement for a member of the Board of the Leasehold Advisory Service to be a representative of the Leasehold Knowledge Partnership.
