The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, what steps she has taken to rejuvenate town centres.

Answered by Alex Norris

We are committed to supporting the businesses and communities that make our high streets flourish.

We are funding new partnership models with High Street Accelerators, implementing High Street Rental Auctions, and introducing a strong new ‘right to buy’ for community assets, to empower local communities to rejuvenate our high streets and address the blight of vacant premises.
