To ask Her Majesty's Government what recent estimate they have made of the number of high rise buildings in the (1) public, and (2) private, sector that still have dangerous and unsuitable cladding on them.

Information on the remediation progress of high-rise (over 18 metres) residential, including private sector, and publicly-owned buildings with ACM cladding systems unlikely to meet Building Regulations is available (attached) in the Building Safety Programme data release.
For high-rise residential buildings with unsafe non-ACM cladding, the Department is continuing to work with building owners to progress applications for the Building Safety Fund at pace so more remedial works can begin as swiftly as possible.
