HC Deb 28 November 1990 vol 181 cc402-3W
Mr. Fishburn

To ask the Attorney-General whether he will make a statement about the publication of draft legislation to implement a commonhold scheme.

The Attorney-General

The Government are today publishing a document entitled "Commonhold: A Consultation Paper"—Cm. 1345. It includes a draft Bill. Comments are invited on this draft legislation and also on certain important policy issues, in particular whether provision should be made enabling the conversion to commonhold of residential long leasehold flats and other developments against the wishes of the landlord. The consultation paper is also available in a version without the draft Bill attached—Cm. 1346.
