<p>The estimate of 530 given on 3 July came from early work that looked at social
housing clad in any sort of aluminium in England. We have since been in regular contact
with every local authority and housing association in the country to identify all
social housing tower blocks above 18 meters that are clad specifically in aluminium
composite material (ACM). Based on work to date, we know there are 173 high rise social
housing buildings with ACM cladding in England and that 165 of these buildings have
cladding systems that present fire hazards. We are not currently aware of any other
ACM clad social housing blocks that are awaiting testing.</p>
