Answer

Corrected reply: [Reply corrected on 11 August 2026] All consents granted were subject to conditions and monitoring. 19 enforcement actions were taken relating to non-compliance with consent conditions in the 2025/26 financial year; eight disposals of property, eight compliance letters advising of the expectation under the Overseas Investment Act, and three variations of conditions of consent to remedy non-compliance.
