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

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, whether she plans to introduce a formal mechanism to remove non-qualifying lease status after confirmation by a professional fire engineer assessment that no further remediation work is required.

As expressed at a recent Select Committee session the department is looking very closely at what can be done to sunset the “in perpetuity” status of leases which do not qualify for the leaseholder protections.
