Housing Estates: Reform
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, what steps her Department is taking to reform estate adoption.
Answered by Matthew Pennycook
The government is determined to end the injustice of ‘fleecehold’ entirely and we will consult this year on legislative and policy options to reduce the prevalence of private estate management arrangements, which are the root cause of the problems experienced by many residential freeholders.
Further details are set out in the comprehensive Written Ministerial Statement I made on 21 November last year.
