Question to the Department for Business and Trade:

To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, if she will conduct a review into the regulation of (a) sales of caravans and (b) management fees at static caravan sites.

Caravan park owners and operators are subject to consumer protection legislation in the same way as any other business which has dealings with consumers.

For example, under the Consumer Rights Act 2015 (CRA), goods purchased (including caravans) have to be as described, of a satisfactory quality, and fit for a particular purpose.

The CRA also protects consumers from unfair contractual terms being applied by traders such as park operators.

We are further strengthening the enforcement of this framework in the Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Bill. Therefore, the Government has no plans to further regulate the sales of caravans.
