Recommendation (the committee's words)
The Government should encourage providers to voluntarily update the terms of their ‘old’ shared ownership leases (for properties delivered under the 2016–2023 programme), particularly the minimum 990-year lease length and the 10-years repair period, and consider offering financial incentives for providers to do so.
