answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 07/01/2019 answer text <p>The Social Housing Green Paper asked if new safety measures in the private rented sector, such as requirements to install carbon monoxide alarms, should be extended to social housing. Alongside this, the Government is carrying out a review to establish whether requirements to install carbon monoxide (CO) alarms in private rented properties should be extended to any fuel burning appliance and social housing. The findings of this review are being considered alongside responses to the Social Housing Green Paper. We plan to set out the Government response to the Green Paper in Spring 2019.</p> answering member constituency North West Hampshire answering member printed Kit Malthouse question first answered 07/01/2019 15:53:30 answering member 4495 label Biography information for Kit Malthouse

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 07/01/2019 answer text <p>The Government is not intending to bring forward legislation with respect to carbon dioxide alarms at this present time. It is, however, conducting a review to establish whether requirements to install carbon monoxide (CO) alarms in private rented properties should be extended to cover any fuel-burning appliance and whether the requirements should also extend to social housing. The findings of this review will be considered alongside responses to our social housing green paper and we plan to set out the Government response to this in due course.</p><p>The law already requires that private landlords install a carbon monoxide alarm in any room having a solid fuel heating appliance. Private landlords are also required to ensure that the alarms are in working order on the first day of the tenancy. Failure to comply with the regulations can result in a penalty of up to £5,000.</p> answering member constituency South Derbyshire answering member printed Mrs Heather Wheeler question first answered 07/01/2019 15:52:59 answering member 4053 label Biography information for Mrs Heather Wheeler
