It is for the building owner to consider whether to remove cladding. They should take expert professional advice on this.

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 11/09/2017 answer text <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> answering member constituency Reading West answering member printed Alok Sharma question first answered 11/09/2017 15:25:48 answering member 4014 label Biography information for Lord Sharma
