Housing: Construction

(asked on 10th June 2026) - View Source

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

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, what assessment he has made of the potential implications for his policies of the Competition and Markets Authority's finding in its 2024 Housebuilding Market Study that the private management of public amenities on housing estates constitutes a detriment to consumers, and that the root cause is the decrease in levels of adoption of amenities by relevant authorities; and whether he has taken action in response to that finding.
