The Minister responded by acknowledging the issues highlighted by the MP regarding Port Marine. He reiterated that leasehold reform is necessary due to the problems faced by residents, such as extortion and inefficiencies in the sector. The Leasehold and Freehold Reform Bill aims to better protect and empower leaseholders by making it easier for them to extend leases or buy freeholds, reducing enfranchisement costs, and improving transparency of service charges and fixed rent charges. The Minister committed to addressing variable service charge increases through standardised information requirements and legal challenges. For fixed rent charges, the Bill introduces a framework allowing residents to challenge excessive fees and hold management companies accountable through tribunals. He also mentioned considering further measures on this area and hoped for support from colleagues as the Bill progresses.
