Answer from Hansard

The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government (Alex Norris)

We are committed to rejuvenating our high streets and town centres. That includes tackling empty shops through high street rental auctions and legislating for a community right to buy to protect precious assets. That is set out in the spending review, providing funding to up to 350 places to help communities drive forward the changes they want to see in their areas.
