This Bill would give freeholders on unadopted private or mixed-use housing estates a formal right to take over the management of common parts. It would set minimum standards for public amenities on new housing estates, with rules for how those standards are enforced and how authorities can adopt the amenities. In short, it aims to improve estate governance and the quality of facilities on new and existing estates.
The bill is currently at the 2nd reading in the House of Commons, following an initial reading in March 2025. Further stages (Committee, Report, Third Reading) are to come.
