After yesterday’s report in the Daily Telegraph announcing that the Conservative Party intends to replace the Home Information Pack with a ‘more robust ready’ pack of documents, we today hear via the Estate Agency Today publication that this is not correct.
The article reports that Grant Shapps office has stated the Tories have no intention of replacing the HIP with anything ‘compulsory’ and that in so far as seeing another pack introduced this would not happen unless industry takes the lead and its ‘voluntary’.
This must once again question whether Shapps and his office know what they are doing. Its difficult to imagine that the Telegraph article would have led with such a definite statement had the information not come from a reliable source.
Does this suggest that there may be some disagreement on HIPs within the Conservative Party. There is much talk that this is more of a personal crusade on Shapps part and that all within his Party do not share this obsession.
