Question to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government:
To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, whether he plans to reopen registration for the Building Safety Fund for those buildings that were not able to conduct EWS1 assessments before July 2020.
The EWS1 process is an industry led process to assess financial risk to inform valuation and is not linked to the Building Safety Fund registration process. We will be publishing more details on how the additional funding for the removal of unsafe cladding announced on 10 February will work alongside the Building Safety Fund.
