To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland what plans he has to assess the impact of the park home owners charter and to carry out more thorough research into the use of residential mobile homes in Scotland and the effectiveness of the legislative framework governing residential mobile homes.

Mr. Michael Forsyth

Research to assess the working of the park home owners charter in Scotland, England and Wales has been commissioned by the Department of the Environment from the university of Birmingham. The research findings are expected to be made available in the next few months. The need for further research into the use of residential mobile homes in Scotland will be considered in the light of these findings.
