Lembit Öpik
Shadow Minister (Housing), Department for Communities and Local Government
To ask the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government what estimate she has made of the number of qualified and registered home inspectors which would be needed if every home information pack contained a home condition report.
Caroline Flint
Minister of State (Department of Communities and Local Government) (Housing)
We estimated, in July 2006 that up to 7,500 home inspectors would have been required if every home information pack contained a home condition report (HCR). This estimate was based on the assumption that many will not work full-time on preparing HCRs, and on the state of the housing market at the time.
