The government is “playing with electoral fire” because its long-anticipated leasehold reform bill failed to include “real” reforms, a campaign group has said.
The group Free Leaseholders said Conservative leaseholders have complained that the proposals in the recently unveiled Leasehold and Freehold Reform Bill “fail to give them control and autonomy over their costs and their building management that normally come with homeownership,” and that they “specifically exclude abolishing leasehold for new flats and make no mention of commonhold at all.”
