Question to the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy:

To ask Her Majesty's Government, further to the Written Answer by Lord True on 23 September (HL7839), when the Land Registry expects to start publishing Unique Property Reference Numbers as part of its publicly available data referencing properties.

HM Land Registry (HMLR) is committed to opening its data where possible. HMLR already incorporates Unique Property Reference Numbers in its published Leasehold property data set and as part of its National Polygon Service. HMLR will incorporate UPRN and Unique Street Reference Number data where appropriate in future publishable data sets in line with the National Data Strategy.
