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

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, how many people live in tower blocks which have been declared unsafe after failing fire safety safety tests.

The focus of the Building Safety Programme has been to identify residential buildings in England over 18 metres with aluminium composite material cladding that may present a fire hazard. We do not hold information on the numbers of residents in these buildings.

However, the Government does publish monthly data releases on the progress of the Building Safety Programme which are available here: https://www.gov.uk/guidance/building-safety-programme#data-on-the-building-safety-progamme
