PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Building Regulations: Fire Prevention (11 May 2018)

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, what comparative assessment his Department has made of standards for fire safety and building regulations in other countries.

Asked by:
Kevin Hollinrake (Conservative)

The Government is committed to learning from the terrible tragedy of Grenfell Tower so that nothing like this can ever happen again.

As such, officials in my Department have considered fire safety and regulations in other countries as part of the wilder policy response and advice for the Hackitt Review, which forms part of the Government response to the Grenfell Tower tragedy.
