Question to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government:
To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, what assessment her Department has made of the potential impact of developer supply chain issues and contractor liquidations on building safety remediation timelines for affected leaseholders.
Progress of remediation projects can be delayed by a range of factors, including supply chain issues and contractor liquidations. Government actively supports remediation projects to consider and account for disruptive factors in their remediation plans. We engage and monitor major suppliers and contractors, including ongoing pressures stemming from disruption in the Middle East. Our monitoring indicates that across the sector as a whole, supply chain and contractor stress are not currently a major bottleneck to remediation.
