What assessment has the Welsh Government made of the consequence of cutting the empty homes budget by £19 million?

Answered by Minister for Climate Change | Answered on 23/11/2023

We have been clear the £19m being released from our Empty Homes scheme in 2023-24 is a deferral of funding – not a cut – and reflects updated spend forecasts.
