Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many fires in Romford were attributable to faults in electrical installations and products in the most recent 12 month period for which figures are available.

The Home Office does not publish this information.

Figures on electrical fires in London can be calculated using the Home Office’s Incident Level datasets, which can be found here
