Politics latest news: Angela Rayner vows to speed up removal of Grenfell-style cladding

Angela Rayner has vowed to speed up the removal of unsafe cladding from UK buildings following the publication of the Grenfell Tower Inquiry report

The Housing Secretary said the pace of removal of cladding over the last seven years was “not acceptable”. 

She suggested Labour will make changes to the law to quicken the process but stopped short of setting a hard deadline for all of the work to be completed. 

Asked if she would set a deadline, she told Times Radio this morning: “Well, it is not acceptable that seven years on we are still in this situation, as I say, that we still have buildings that we are still trying to identify as well as a number of issues including ownership of those buildings and unpicking some of that, some are offshore, some are subsidiaries and there is a lot of work to do. 

“I am determined to make sure that our remediation acceleration plan comes forward with, if we need changes to legislation, which I believe we will, especially in light of the report findings that we have got now which we will have to go through and to ensure that we do everything we possibly can to speed this up.”
