INSURANCE FOR LEASEHOLDERS

Early day motion 796, tabled 31 January 2007 by David Crausby (Labour). Signed by 48 members.

That this House welcomes the fact that the Commonhold and Leasehold Reform Act 2002 allows leaseholders to insure property with an insurer of their own choice; further notes that leaseholders continue to be harassed, bullied and misled into using an insurer who pays commission to the landlord; and calls on the Government to force landlords and insurers to make leaseholders aware of their statutory rights.

Signatures by party: Labour 36, Liberal Democrat 5, Conservative 4, DUP 1, Plaid Cymru 1, Social Democratic and Labour Party 1.
