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

To ask the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government, on how many occasions in each year since 2009-10 local building control authorities used their powers under section (a) 35, (b) 36, (c) 36 (6), (d) 77 and (e) 78 of the Building Act 1984 to alter, or cease building works because of concerns about fire safety.

My Department does not collect figures from local authorities on the use of these sections of the Building Act 1984.
