Question to the Department for Levelling Up, Housing & Communities:

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, what fire safety assessments have been carried out on the use of (a) Celotex RS5000 insulation and (b) Kingspan K15 insulation for buildings (i) above and (ii) below 18 metres in height.

The Government published in January 2020 a consolidated advice note providing information to building owners on the actions they should be taking immediately to address the risk of fire spread from external wall systems including insulation and balconies. The consolidated advice note is available at: https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/869532/Building_safety_advice_for_building_owners_including_fire_doors_January_2020.pdf
