To ask Her Majesty's Government on what aspects of housing and planning reform announced in the recent Queen's speech they plan to introduce legislation; and whether they have a timetable for the introduction of those housing and planning related initiatives.
Answered on

The Queen's Speech set out a range of measures for housing and planning, including the Renters' Reform Bill, Fire Safety Bill and Building Safety Bill, First Homes, and the Planning White Paper. The Government will release further details on all of these measures over the next few weeks and months, with legislative timetables set as parliamentary time allows. We will also publish a Planning White Paper later this year.
