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

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, with reference to his Department's press release, Government announces it will fully fund unsafe cladding removal in social housing, published on 18 May 2018, whether he will require that cladding fitted under that programme is entirely non-combustible.

We will announce more details shortly about how councils and housing associations can apply for funding, including conditions attached to the grant.
