National housing and planning policy, including HMOs, is the responsibility,
since the Government re-organisation of May 2006, of the Department
for Communities & Local Government (CLG). Following the
General Election of 6 May 2010, and the formation of a coalition
government, the new ministerial team at Communities & Local
Government comprised Eric Pickles MP, Secretary of State for Communities
and Local Government, Grant Shapps MP, Minister of State for Housing,
and Greg Clark MP, Minister of State for Decentralisation (all are
Conservatives). Grant Shapps MP was succeeded as Housing Minister
by Mark Prisk MP in the ministerial reshuffle of 4 September 2012.
The Department's address is Eland House, Bressenden Place, London
SW1E 5DU, tel: 0207 944 4101.
