Charges must be means-tested for affordability based on household earnings, so that no family is priced out of their home by unaffordable fees.","additional_details":"Shared owners and leaseholders face unregulated, rising service charges that are unaffordable and unsustainable. Fees often take a disproportionate share of income, pushing families into financial strain with little transparency or recourse. Housing associations must fully itemize and justify charges. Affordable housing must stay affordable by capping fees and linking them to income to prevent financial hardship and homelessness.","committee_note":null,"state":"rejected","signature_count":9,"created_at":"2026-03-03T19:06:47.432Z","updated_at":"2026-03-31T10:14:03.096Z","rejected_at":"2026-03-31T10:14:01.527Z","opened_at":null,"closed_at":null,"moderation_threshold_reached_at":"2026-03-03T19:15:40.000Z","response_threshold_reached_at":null,"government_response_at":null,"debate_threshold_reached_at":null,"scheduled_debate_date":null,"debate_outcome_at":null,"creator_name":null,"rejection":{"code":"duplicate","details":"The following petition calls for a similar action: \r\n\r\nCap service charges & require publication of how they are calculated and spent\r\nhttps://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/750294"},"government_response":null,"debate":null,"departments":[],"topics":[]}}}
