Details

The Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government (MHCLG) has published an impact assessment for a consultation seeking views on prescribing the valuation rates used in leasehold enfranchisement claims under the Leasehold and Freehold Reform Act 2024.

The Regulatory Policy Committee (RPC) gave a ‘green’ rating to the impact assessment on 24 June 2026. This means that we considered it to be ‘fit for purpose’ based on our scrutiny of the evidence and analysis supporting the case for why regulation is necessary.

The RPC’s opinion refers to the evidence and analysis presented in the impact assessment, not the policy itself.

The impact assessment was submitted by MHCLG under the interim Better Regulation Framework guidance.
