Build to let buildings

  • Reference: 2020/2332
  • Question by: Andrew Dismore
  • Meeting date: 16 July 2020
The National Audit Office report into ACM cladding removal noted build to let buildings have no recourse to the remediation funds and this is stalling works. How many build to let buildings are affected by this in London, how many dwellings do they contain, and what efforts is the GLA taking to enforce remediation?

Underspend in cladding remediation funds

  • Reference: 2020/2331
  • Question by: Andrew Dismore
  • Meeting date: 16 July 2020
The National Audit Office report into ACM cladding removal noted the social sector and private sector cladding remediation funds will underspend by the time all remediation is complete.

Competition and Markets Authority oversight of state aid rules

  • Reference: 2020/2328
  • Question by: Andrew Dismore
  • Meeting date: 16 July 2020
In response to my question 2020/1994, you said that five leaseholders had received a reduced share of the cladding remediation fund owing to state aid restrictions. Given the relatively low level of potential breaches found so far, will you write to the CMA and ask them to consider lifting the considerable bureaucratic burden of administrating state aid forms once they take over management of the process in December 2020?

Completion of non-ACM dangerous cladding survey

  • Reference: 2020/2327
  • Question by: Andrew Dismore
  • Meeting date: 16 July 2020
In response to my question 2020/1992, you said the data collection exercise for 11m+ buildings with non-ACM dangerous cladding will not finish until summer 2020. Please will you write to me once that exercise is complete to notify me of the publication of the results?

Assessing the damage of the limits on social sector applications to the Building Safety Fund

  • Reference: 2020/2326
  • Question by: Andrew Dismore
  • Meeting date: 16 July 2020
In response to my question 2020/1999, you said: “registered providers and councils may have to divert resources away from building the new genuinely affordable homes that London desperately needs towards the cost of remediating unsafe buildings. Additionally, social landlords will have fewer resources available for general repairs and maintenance on existing homes and may increase rents”. So that we may judge the consequences of the Government’s decision to limit the support for social sector providers from the Building Safety Fund, will you begin surveying the GLA’s social sector housing partners to track the extent of these negative outcomes?
