According to the most recent MHCLG data, 29 London Boroughs have at least 1 building with a cladding system that failed large-scale tests. Brent, Newham, Tower Hamlets, Wandsworth and Westminster have over 11. In May the Government agreed to fund cladding removal for social sector buildings, but what are you doing to highlight to the relevant private sector building owners the brevity of this situation and encourage urgent remediation work? Furthermore, what are you doing to encourage private sector building owners who are yet to do so, to get their cladding tested?
