The Government supports the Private Members\u2019 Bill, Animal Welfare (Import of Dogs, Cats and Ferrets) Bill, introduced by Selaine Saxby MP on restricting the importation and non-commercial movement of pets.

In many cases, the concerns raised with us were found either not to be building safety remediation issues or works were not actually proposed by the freeholder.<\/p> With regards to the average time taken for the audit to be completed by the department, this will depend upon how quickly the relevant information for the audit to proceed is received. Audits are dependent on the information from third parties like the resident, freeholder or managing agent. Where a FRAEW is provided, our assessor will usually complete an audit within two weeks.<\/p> To date, our audits have found that only three buildings under 11 metres require remediation.<\/p> We are in conversation with building owners and developers about funding solutions that protect leaseholders. We stress that the responsibility for the costs of fixing historical building safety defects should rest with building owners. They should not pass these costs on to leaseholders but should seek to recover costs from those who were responsible for building unsafe homes.<\/p>"}

Of these, 3,488 buildings applied in the first tranche of opening and 140 applied in the second tranche of opening. Of the total that applied: 1,096 are ineligible \u2013 1,089 are from the first tranche of opening and seven are from the second tranche. Further information about the status of buildings can be found at the following link<\/a>.<\/p> The Cladding Safety Scheme via Homes England provides details on allocated spend for each building. Since its launch in July, it has interacted with over 1,000 buildings. 450 are currently engaging with the application process, carrying out technical reports to enable eligibility assessment. Within its first nine months, 170 buildings have been deemed eligible via technical assessment and can now progress with the relevant support and funding to procure construction contracts and start remediation works. To date, £28.25 million has been provided for this work to take place. To be allocated further funding, eligible applicants need to procure the works required and submit a package of funding for approval. We are awaiting the outcome of this procurement activity in the market for 165 buildings to enable the next steps to be taken. The five applicants where their works have been approved amount to an allocation of £11 million.<\/p> As at 29 February 2024, there are no buildings being monitored exclusively by the ACM programme and there are 15 buildings being monitored exclusively by the BSF programme that are having non-cladding defects remediated under the developer remediation contract. In addition, there are two buildings which are being monitored by both schemes. We do not have an estimate for the number of buildings in the ACM programme and BSF that are having non-cladding remediation works undertaken outside of the developer remediation contract.<\/p> Information on enforcement action taken by local authorities on high-rise residential buildings under the Housing Act 2004 by buildings in: i) the ACM programme, ii) the BSF programme and iii) neither programme, is published in table Enforcement_1 of the monthly data release.<\/p>"}
