answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 07/02/2020 answer text <p>The safety of students and staff across the education estate remains ministers' highest priority. Since the Grenfell fire, the department has worked closely with the Ministry of Housing Communities and Local Government (MHCLG) on fire safety. In line with that cross-government approach, we identified university-owned residential buildings over 18 metres with potentially dangerous ACM cladding. In the light of updated building safety guidance for owners of residential buildings published on 20 January by MHCLG, the department will gather any additional information required on residential buildings across the education estate, and will continue to work with building owners to ensure that any subsequent remediation work, if any, is undertaken.</p> answering member constituency Kingswood answering member printed Chris Skidmore grouped question UIN 9697 question first answered 07/02/2020 10:09:29 answering member 4021 label Biography information for Chris Skidmore
