High Rise Flats: Insulation

Question: To ask the Secretary of State for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities, with reference to his Department's publication entitled Building Safety Remediation: monthly data release - March 2024, published on 18 April 2024, what the target state date is for remediation work to commence for all buildings under the Building Safety Fund that have not yet started works.

Answer: The department will continue to pursue a range of initiatives to seek remediation at the earliest date. The Honourable Gentleman will be aware, from the document he quotes in his questions, that the length of time to conclude remediation will depend upon the number of responsible entities that start remediation in a timely manner and how many will need to be compelled to do so. The Government will continue to take action to make progress on remediation.
