Last Thursday the Prime Minister told my right hon. Friend the Member for Leeds Central (Hilary Benn) that she would make the results of the Grenfell Tower cladding testing public within 48 hours, and I am not sure she has actually done that with her statement today. As of yesterday—the Prime Minister has just confirmed this—120 high rise blocks across Britain have had fire safety tests and failed them. What timetable has the Prime Minister set for such tests to be completed, including on schools and hospitals, in every part of the country? What plans does she have to compel the testing of high rise buildings such as private sector office blocks and hotels, which may also have combustible cladding material on them?

What I said last week in the statement is that my understanding is that the police were going to make a statement about the cladding material within 48 hours, and I think the police then did make a statement about the position. In relation to the tests, my message is a very simple one. As I said in my answer to the right hon. Gentleman’s first question, what we are saying to people is that this is not a question of waiting for the tests. Do not wait until you have a sample in and you know what the result of the test is. So far, 100% of the samples that have come in have proved to be combustible, so work on the assumption that you should be doing the fire safety checks now. That is what we are telling people to do. We know that parts of the private sector are also doing their work on fire safety checks, but my response to all those who have buildings that are covered by this is: do the fire safety checks with the fire service, take any measures that are necessary to ensure fire safety and the Government will support you in doing that.

That this House condemns the launch of an Agni nuclear missile by India at dawn on 25th January; notes that the test breaches the 1963 Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty; criticises India's claim that such tests are necessary to ensure its own security; believes it to be an act which can only detract from current efforts and peaceful negotiations between India and its nuclear neighbours, Pakistan and China; insists that there is no basis whatsoever for resorting to nuclear exercises of any sort; further notes the Pakistani Foreign Office statement calling the tests 'prejudicial to the pursuit of stability in our region'; believes the test exposes a possible 'conspiracy of silence' by the five nuclear weapons states who were all aware of the test; and calls upon India to cease all nuclear exercises in favour of focusing upon purposeful dialogue as a means of solving the existing tensions between India and Pakistan and as the only safe and secure route to a viable future for the regions.
