The Co-operative Housing Tenure Bill aims to change how homes owned by certain co-operatives are occupied. It would replace occupation under tenancy or other property interests with occupancy that comes from membership in the co-operative, creating a new co-operative tenure. It also sets out the rights and duties of the co-operative and its members under this system and includes related provisions to support it.
The bill is at the Commons' second reading stage. Its first reading took place on 2 April 2025, and it is progressing through Parliament.
