Question to the Department for Levelling Up, Housing & Communities:
To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, what assessment he has has made of the potential merits of his Department having a role in supporting the timely settlement of disputes and claims between building developers and insurance or warranty providers where building safety remediation works are required.
Matters of liability and any related action are specific to individual buildings and/or claims and the department cannot comment or intervene in any disputes on these. If the dispute is over an unsuccessful warranty claim then an owner may make a complaint to the Financial Ombudsman Service.
