Leasehold and Freehold Reform Bill

Proceeding contribution from Lord Beamish (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 11 December 2023. It occurred during Debate on bills on Leasehold and Freehold Reform Bill.

Does my right hon. Friend agree with what I said to the Secretary of State? The Government could have stopped this, if they had not done the Help to Buy scheme, which fuelled this practice among large developers. They could have stopped it in its tracks, if they had stopped the finance to those companies. Does she also agree that expectations have been raised among a lot of the leaseholders who were put into the trap of their houses being leasehold? They thought they were going to get out of that trap, when actually they are not.
