<p>As the Hon. Member for Christchurch is aware, the Government is unable to support
his Mobile Homes Act 1983 (Amendment) Bill as currently drafted. However, the Government
remains committed to improving protections for park home residents and will continue
to build on the substantial improvements already made to the sector by the Mobile
Homes Act 2013.</p><p>On 23 September, we delivered on our commitment to make Regulations
introducing a fit and proper test for park home site owners or their manager. We are
making progress on introducing further primary legislation as parliamentary time allows
to deliver on other commitments set out in our 2018 response to the review of park
homes legislation.</p><p>Following the meeting with the Hon. Member, my Department
has been carefully considering options and the detailed policy to ensure that any
proposed at any proposed measures can be delivered effectively without any unintended
consequences.</p>
