Question to the Department for Levelling Up, Housing & Communities:

To ask the Secretary of State for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities, with reference to the Government's announcement of 9 June 2022, what his planned timetable is for extending the right to buy to housing association tenants.

This Government is committed to the Right to Buy, which has helped nearly two million social housing tenants to realise their dream of home ownership. The Prime Minister announced on 9 June 2022 the intention to extend the Right to Buy to housing association tenants.

We want the scheme to work effectively for tenants and housing associations and will be working with housing associations on the scheme design. We will announce more details in due course, including on the planned timetable.
