Question to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government:
To ask the Secretary of State for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities, what assessment his Department has made of trends in the prevalence of damp and mould in social housing in (a) Enfield North constituency and (b) the London Borough of Enfield.
Answered by Baroness Maclean of Redditch
We assess levels of damp and overcrowding by tenure through the English Housing Survey, which can be found here. Local level data will be held by the local authority in question.
Everyone deserves a decent home - one that is free from dangerous damp and mould and overcrowding - which is why we committed to reducing the number of non-decent rented homes by 50% by 2030. We are reviewing the Decent Home Standard and are committed to introduce the standard to the private rented sector for the first time.
We also continue working towards our ambition of delivering 300,000 new homes per year to help create a more sustainable and affordable housing market. Over 2.2 million additional homes have been delivered since April 2010.
I also refer the Hon Member to the answer to Question UIN 181418 on 24 April 2023.
