The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, what his planned timetable is for publishing more information on (a) the High Streets Strategy and (b) how funding will be allocated to specific places.

Answered by Nesil Caliskan

Later this year we will bring forward a new cross-government High Streets Strategy backed by £301m, to support local communities to reimagine and revive struggling high streets and make them fit for the future. We will continue to have conversations with businesses and communities to inform the strategy and announce more details in due course.
