Community Assets
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, what guidance her Department has issued on how the proposed Community Right to Buy will (a) operate and (b) differ from the community rights provisions of the Localism Act 2011.
Answered by Alex Norris
Community Right to Buy will be introduced in the English Devolution Bill, providing stronger powers for local people who wish to purchase valued community spaces. We are considering what changes need to be made to the Localism Act 2011 to better support community ownership, while respecting the rights of asset owners. We will provide more details on the planned measures in due course.
