Rights of Way
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, whether he has received representations from the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs on ensuring that the statutory duties of local highway authorities for the public rights of way network are integrated into the emerging Local Government Outcomes Framework.
Answered by Alison McGovern
Officials in the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government have worked closely with those in the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs and the Department for Transport during the development of the Local Outcomes Framework to ensure alignment with priorities across government. I refer the hon. Member to the answer given to Question UIN HL12556 on 11 December 2025 for more information on this matter.
