We are focusing public funding on remediating high rise buildings, as these are least likely to safely evacuate in the event of a cladding fire. This reflects the exceptional fire risk that certain cladding products pose at that height, as noted by Dame Judith Hackitt. It remains building owners' responsibility to address unsafe cladding on buildings of all heights. We have provided expert advice on the measures building owners should take to ensure their buildings are safe.
