	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 14/09/2017 answer text <p>In line with expert advice, the first step to identify other buildings of concern following the Grenfell Tower tragedy was initial screening tests on Aluminium Composite Material (ACM) cladding samples. These generic tests are identifying which blocks have cladding which is not of limited combustibility, as defined in current Building Regulations guidance. The independent expert advisory panel recommended further large scale testing of cladding systems be undertaken according to the British Standard BS8414-1 and classified to BR135, the standard set out in current Building Regulations guidance. The large scale system tests provide more information about how cladding systems behave in a fire.
