I propose to take Questions Nos. 594 and 599 together.

I have no function in relation to the regulation of how property websites and advertisements for properties for sale display information, including whether they provide specific asking prices or not.

I have no plans to introduce legislation or guidance in relation to the assignment of conditions of planning permission regarding the advertisement of new houses or apartment developments without a price.
