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

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, with reference to the Written Statement of 13 April 2021, HCWS913 on Building Safety Monthly Update, when his Department plans to publish details of the finance scheme for leaseholders in buildings between 11 and 18 metres that will ensure that those leaseholders do not have to pay more than £50 a month for cladding removal; and when that scheme will become operational.

Public safety is our first priority and we are working to ensure unsafe cladding is remediated as swiftly as possible. We will publish further details of the finance scheme as soon as we are in a position to do so.
