Question to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government:

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, with reference to the Written Statement of 18 July 2019, Building safety update, HCWS 1757, what steps he is taking to expedite remedial works on buildings with unsafe ACM cladding in cases where private sector building owners have given a clear commitment to that remediation and a plan has been agreed but the proposed finish date for those works is after June 2020.

We will work closely with responsible entities at all stages in the process to ensure that remediation is completed at pace and by June 2020, unless there are exceptional circumstances.
