Holiday Accommodation
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, what her planned timeline is for the regulation of short-term lets.
Answered by Chris Bryant
Following public consultation in 2023, Parliament legislated for a registration scheme for short-term lets in the Levelling Up and Regeneration Act 2023. The Government is committed to delivering this scheme as soon as possible to support our thriving visitor economy while protecting local communities through improved oversight of the short-term lets sector. The Government has now concluded the initial development state of the registration scheme and expects to begin publicly testing the scheme in 12 months time.
