Question to the Department for Levelling Up, Housing & Communities:

To ask the Secretary of State for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities, when the independent review of the construction products testing regime will be (a) completed and (b) published.

The department commissioned an Independent Review of the system for testing construction products. The review looks to examine how to strengthen the current system for testing construction products to provide confidence that these materials are safe and perform as marketed. This is a complex area and good progress has been made. We expect to publish the review shortly, and will respond in due course.
