Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government written question – answered at on 20 September 2024.
Lord Ravensdale
Crossbench
To ask His Majesty's Government when they intend to legislate to bring in the Future Homes Standard and Future Buildings Standard; and when these will apply to all new (1) domestic, and (2) non-domestic, buildings respectively.
Baroness Taylor of Stevenage
Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Housing, Communities and Local Government), Baroness in Waiting (HM Household) (Whip)
The Future Homes and Buildings Standards consultation was published in December 2023 and closed in March 2024, and a government response has not yet been issued. The consultation proposed that the new standards would apply to all new domestic and non-domestic buildings.
We fully support the need for low carbon homes and buildings, fit for a net zero future. We are reviewing proposals and feedback from the Future Homes and Buildings Standards consultation and will publish the government response in due course.
