Question to the Department for Levelling Up, Housing & Communities:
To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, on what (a) types and (b) heights of buildings an External Wall System review should be carried out.
The Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) have published guidance on the use of the EWS1 form: https://www.rics.org/uk/news-insight/latest-news/fire-safety/cladding-qa/
The guidance states that the EWS1 form is to be used to assess buildings 18 metres or more with combustible material; that it can used on buildings below 18 metres where there are specific concerns; and that in such cases a rationale to justify its request is required.
