Question to the Department for Levelling Up, Housing & Communities:

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, what steps his Department is taking to assist leaseholders whose homes are in high-rise residential buildings with unsafe cladding but below 18 metres in height.

It remains building owners’ responsibility to address unsafe cladding on buildings of all heights. We have provided advice from the Independent Expert Advisory Panel on the measures building owners should take to ensure their buildings are safe, which can be found here: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/building-safety-advice-for-building-owners-including-fire-doors .
