Legislate so bona vacantia funds from Duchy of Lancaster go to council housing

Closed 110 signatures

What the petition asks

We want the Government to introduce legislation that requires that the Duchy of Lancaster, a controversial land and property estate that generates huge INCOME for King Charles III, give the bona vacantia revenues to local councils to build council housing.
We believe that it is reprehensible that money is being made by the King's estate from these unclaimed assets.
