Question to the Department for Levelling Up, Housing & Communities:
To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, whether he plans to extend the application deadline for the Building Safety Fund beyond December 2020.
The timelines for the Building Safety Fund, set out in the prospectus, are intended to incentivise building owners to demonstrate pace of progression with their remediation plans for unsafe buildings. We will keep timelines under review as we continue through the application process. In addition to remediation funding, we are also providing technical and pre-tender support for applicants.
