Mr. Roe stated revoking the stay put advice was an easy decision due to the fire's severity, noting earlier evacuation could have been riskier because of smoke.
Roe emphasized that residents were advised to stay put for too long, suggesting many lives could have been saved if evacuation orders had come sooner.
Reflecting on the scene, Mr. Roe recalled the terror of people screaming, indicating how dire the situation was, with individuals trapped and desperate for help.
The inquiry concluded that the tower's non-compliant cladding was the main issue, which led to the rapid spread of the fire, resulting in the tragic loss of lives.
