PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
High Rise Flats: Fire Prevention (23 January 2018)

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, how many times which materials have failed the 8414 large-scale tests conducted by the Building Research Establishment in the last 5 years; and of those materials that failed such tests what information his Department holds on how many buildings there are that are clad in those materials.

Asked by:
Mr Clive Betts (Labour)

Results of commercially sponsored tests carried out by independent test laboratories are not held centrally. The Department regularly publishes data on the Building Safety Programme. The latest data release was published on 22 January 2018 and is available at: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/building-safety-programme-monthly-data-release-january-2018.
