answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 15/06/2021 answer text <p>The Model Tenancy Agreement is the Government's suggested contract for assured shorthold tenancies in the private rented sector, which landlords and tenants can choose to use to agree a tenancy. The 'New' Model Tenancy Agreement revised the previous agreement, with changes focussed on making it easier for responsible tenants to have well behaved pets in their home.</p><p>Many social landlords set out their pet policies in their tenancy agreements and will allow tenants to keep pets where it is appropriate to do so, and provided they are well looked after and do not adversely affect the lives of neighbours and those living nearby.</p><p>In our Social Housing White Paper we encourage all social landlords to adopt similar policies. The circumstances in which pets may be kept are, however, for social landlords to determine locally, taking account of the views of their tenants.</p> answering member constituency Walsall North answering member printed Eddie Hughes question first answered 15/06/2021 13:58:36 answering member 4635 label Biography information for Eddie Hughes

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 28/04/2021 answer text <p>Offering older people a better choice of accommodation to suit their changing needs can help them live independently for longer and feel more connected to their communities. Housing with support and care plays a vital role in enabling older people to live independently, as well as delivering wider benefits to society.</p><p>We are investing over £12 billion in affordable housing over 5 years, the largest investment in affordable housing in a decade. This includes the new £11.5 billion Affordable Homes Programme, where 10 per cent of delivery over the course of the programme will be used to increase the supply of much needed specialist, supported and retirement housing, including housing with care for older people. In addition, the Department of Health and Social Care continue to subsidise new supply of specialist housing for older and disabled people through the Care and Support Specialised Housing (CASSH) Fund.</p><p>We are working closely with the sector and across government to look at how we can further support growth and diversity of older people’s housing. This includes considering the merits of different engagement and delivery models, including housing with care accommodation.</p> answering member constituency Tamworth answering member printed Christopher Pincher question first answered 28/04/2021 15:52:12 answering member 4075 label Biography information for Christopher Pincher

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 01/02/2021 answer text <p>This Government is fully committed to supporting the businesses and communities that make our high streets and town centres successful as the nation responds to the impacts of the COVID-19 outbreak.</p><p>High streets and town centre regeneration policy is a devolved matter. Government officials have worked and will continue to work closely with their counterparts in the devolved administrations on the response to COVID-19 and in the future.</p><p>We are providing support to local leadership in England with a High Streets Task Force, giving them expert advice to support their high streets and town centres to adapt and thrive. Up to 2024 this is providing hands-on support to local areas to develop data-driven innovative strategies and connect local areas to relevant experts.</p><p>To support our town centres and high streets, we have introduced reforms to the use classes to enable more flexible use of existing buildings. These reforms create a new ‘commercial, business and service’ use class which encompasses a wide range of uses which will attract people to high streets and town centres. This includes offices and other business uses, shops, cafes, gyms and any other uses which are suitable in a town centre. The new class also allows for mixed uses to reflect changing retail and business models.</p> answering member constituency Thornbury and Yate answering member printed Luke Hall question first answered 01/02/2021 17:30:57 answering member 4450 label Biography information for Luke Hall
