tabling member printed	Ben Bradley
uin	149361
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 05/04/2022 answer text <p>The Secretary of State has a duty under Section1 of the Planning Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas Act 1990 to list buildings of special architectural and historic interest. Buildings that have been left derelict for long periods of time may still meet the statutory criteria for listing. Delisting just in circumstances where a building has been left to disrepair would not be appropriate.</p><p>Local Authorities have powers to take action where a designated heritage asset has deteriorated to the extent that its preservation may be at risk. This includes undertaking urgent works and recovering those costs, as well as compulsory acquisition, including provisions for minimum compensation where an owner has deliberately allowed a building to fall into disrepair in order to justify its demolition and secure permission for redevelopment of the site. Listed buildings represent some of our most significant heritage assets and should not be neglected by owners.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Mid Worcestershire answering member printed Nigel Huddleston question first answered 05/04/2022 12:01:35 answering member 4407 label Biography information for Nigel Huddleston
