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

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, what criteria the Government will use to determine financial support for leaseholders affected by ACM cladding.

Following the Department’s intervention, the remediation of over 50 per cent of privately owned high-rise residential buildings with unsafe ACM cladding is being paid for by building owners and developers, or through warranty or insurance claims, without passing the costs to residents.

For the remaining buildings the Government has stepped in with £600 million in funding in both the private and social sector ensuring that no leaseholders in these buildings will have to pay to replace unsafe ACM cladding. We are working on further financing solutions to fund wider remediation costs.
