There are no plans to implement a national review of compartmentalisation in residential buildings


However, I would refer the honourable Member to the Secretary of State's written statement on 6 June announcing a consultation on our proposals for a new system of building and fire safety which puts residents’ safety at its heart.​ The documents are published at:
