The Government published a draft of the remediation contract on 13 July 2022 and has received comments and held discussions about the draft with various parties including the Home Builders Federation and individual developers. We are working to finalise the wording of the contract, including with respect to the scope and standard of works to be performed. We will publish the final draft of the contract and have made clear that it will not deviate from the principles set out in the pledge.
