Grenfell Tower: Fires
(asked on 22nd July 2026) - View Source
Question to the Attorney General:
To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the number of successful criminal prosecutions brought following the Grenfell tragedy.
This question was answered on 21st September 2026
The CPS Special Crime Division has worked closely with the Metropolitan Police Service throughout its investigation into the Grenfell Tower fire and expects to receive a full evidential file later this year. Charging decisions will be made independently, fairly and in accordance with the Code for Crown Prosecutors. The CPS recognise the deep significance of this case and the importance of reaching charging decisions as soon as possible. Given the scale and complexity of the investigation, CPS specialist prosecutors will need time to review all the evidence thoroughly before any final decisions are made.
