If the screening tests indicate that such cladding would not meet the limited combustibility requirements of the current Building Regulations guidance, local authorities, housing associations, private sector landlords and the fire and rescue service will determine the best course of action, communicating closely with residents.

star this property answer text <p>Only three applications had been received by October 2016 which proved insufficient for a meaningful assessment to be made. The Department did not therefore carry out a formal review of the changes to selective licensing introduced from April 2015. Since then we have received a further number of applications and will soon be in a position to undertake a review. I will ensure the findings of the review are placed in the Library when it is complete.</p> more like this

star this property answer text <p>The Government has an ambitious programme to bring brownfield land back into use in England and is working closely with local authorities to drive this forward. In April 2017 we introduced a requirement for local planning authorities to publish a statutory brownfield land register by the end of 2017 which will identify which previously developed sites are suitable for housing. We are currently working with representative organisations for local government to ensure local planning authorities have these brownfield land registers in place. In addition, there is continuing engagement with local authorities on a range of other programmes, including the designation of 26 Housing Zones on brownfield land, and our £1.2 billion Starter Homes Land Fund to bring forward suitable brownfield land for starter homes and other types of affordable home ownership products.</p><p /><p /> more like this
