Short-term lets

Early day motion 249, tabled 8 January 2024 by Tim Farron (Liberal Democrat). Signed by 7 members.

That this House acknowledges the Government’s consultation on introducing a different category of planning use for short-term lets; notes that this consultation ended last June; recognises the urgency and importance of action to introduce a separate category of planning use for short term lets as the government has promised; further recognises that this is in order to maintain housing stock that is affordable and available for local people, particularly in communities in the Lake District, Yorkshire Dales, the West Country, coastal communities and other popular tourist destinations; and urges the Government to proceed with introducing a different class of planning use of short-term lets.

Signatures by party: Liberal Democrat 4, Labour/Co-operative 2, DUP 1.
