answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 20/06/2019 answer text <p>Government intervention to provide funding to speed up the removal of unsafe Aluminium Composite Material (ACM) cladding is wholly exceptional. This is based on the unparalleled fire risk ACM poses. The Government has consistently made clear that building safety is the responsibility of the building owner. We have published guidance to reiterate the importance of building owners assessing their buildings and ensuring that non-ACM cladding systems are safe. Advice Note 14, published in 2017 and updated in December 2018, reiterates that the clearest way to ensure safety is to remove unsafe materials. <a href="https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/765761/Expert_Panel_advice_note_on_non-ACM.pdf" target="_blank">https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/765761/Expert_Panel_advice_note_on_non-ACM.pdf</a></p> answering member constituency North West Hampshire answering member printed Kit Malthouse question first answered 20/06/2019 14:34:58 answering member 4495 label Biography information for Kit Malthouse previous answer version 124060 answering member constituency North West Hampshire answering member printed Kit Malthouse answering member 4495 label Biography information for Kit Malthouse
