Buildings: Insulation
(asked on 21st April 2021) - View Source
Question to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government:
To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, what assessment he has made of the potential merits of requiring the outcome of building surveys for EWS1 fire risk assessments to be made public.
This question was answered on 29th April 2021
The EWS1 is not a Government form nor a legal requirement. It was created by industry to help with mortgage valuations for high rise buildings over 18m. When asked by flat owners, building owners should be forthcoming with the outcome of assessments of the building, whether to do with fire safety, or mortgage valuations.
