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 Building Safety Programme: Monthly Data Release, published on 14 May 2020, if he will publish local authority data in the format of Table 3 in that document for all (a) social sector buildings identified with ACM cladding systems unlikely to meet building regulations, (b) social sector buildings identified with ACM cladding systems unlikely to meet building regulations yet to be remediated, (c) private sector buildings identified with ACM cladding systems unlikely to meet building regulations and (d) private sector buildings identified with ACM cladding systems unlikely to meet building regulations yet to be remediated.
We are considering what further information can be published in the Building Safety Programme Monthly Data Release for different geographical areas by sector, including regions and local authorities, without risking the identification of buildings with ACM cladding systems unlikely to meet building regulations in these areas. This reflects the position of the Government not to reveal the identity of high-rise residential buildings with unsafe ACM cladding systems on public safety grounds.
