Co-operative Housing Tenure Bill

[As Introduced]
A
BILL
to

The Cooperative Housing Tenure Bill establishes a new legal framework for cooperative housing in the UK, where residents collectively own and manage their homes rather than renting from a landlord or purchasing individually. The bill creates formal recognition of housing cooperatives as a distinct tenure type, sets out governance standards, and provides legal protections for cooperative members. It aims to make cooperative housing more accessible and sustainable by clarifying property rights, financing mechanisms, and member responsibilities within a regulated structure.

Presented by Andrew Pakes.
