Rayner says unsafe cladding must be removed faster
Briefly

Housing Secretary Angela Rayner criticized the ongoing presence of unsafe cladding on over 2,000 buildings, expressing her concern over the lack of progress in essential safety upgrades.
Rayner stated that it is astonishing that work on half of the buildings identified as needing dangerous cladding has yet to begin, emphasizing the government's commitment to accountability.
The Cladding Safety Scheme has encountered challenges due to complex ownership structures, prompting Rayner to look for solutions to ensure that building owners fulfill their obligations.
Following the Grenfell tragedy, it was indicated that all 72 deaths were avoidable, underscoring the urgency for rectifying fire safety issues in buildings with hazardous materials.
