Flats: Fire Prevention
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, what funding is available to leaseholders for cladding remediation works on buildings under 11 metres in height.
Answered by Samantha Dixon
Funding is not currently available for buildings under 11 metres in height. However, the Department announced targeted funding for multi-occupied residential buildings under 11 metres in the Remediation Acceleration Plan update. This funding will be available in exceptional cases, where there are life-critical fire safety risks from cladding and no alternative route to funding.
Additional details about funding for exceptional cladding remediation in buildings below 11 metres in England will be shared by the Department in due course.
