The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, whether the Community Ownership Fund Round 4 Window 2 will be reopened and restored for applications.

Answered by Alex Norris

This government is committed to the communities sector and community ownership through empowering communities to own and run those local assets which mean the most to them. The English Devolution Bill will empower communities with a strong new ‘right to buy’ beloved community assets, such as empty shops, pubs and community spaces.

We will make further announcements in due course.
