Grenfell Recovery Taskforce

Sajid Javid Excerpts

Wednesday 1st November 2017 Written Statements

[The Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government (Sajid Javid)]

On 25 July 2017, I appointed the independent Grenfell Recovery Taskforce to support and challenge the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea (RBKC) following the Grenfell Tower disaster.

I am grateful for the taskforce’s work over the last three months, working with the council, community and partner organisations to understand progress on the recovery plan.

I received the taskforce’s first report yesterday. I am considering its findings and will be discussing these with RBKC. Before recess I plan to make an oral statement to the House and will publish the report.
