The Government\u2019s Building Safety Programme is tracking the remediation of residential buildings over 18 metres with unsafe Aluminium Composite Material (ACM) cladding systems. The data in our monthly data release includes buildings which are partially clad in these materials.<\/p>
We do not hold the relevant information for buildings with other cladding or insulation systems. As of 12 October 2018, there are 9 high-rise (over 18 metres) publicly owned buildings, comprising hospitals and schools in England with ACM cladding systems unlikely to meet the Building Regulations requirements. Of these, 8 are hospitals and 1 is a school.<\/p>
We are working with the Department of Health and Social Care, NHS Improvement and Department for Education to ensure that appropriate remediation steps are being taken on public buildings. We are not aware of any high-rise care homes over 18 metres with unsafe ACM cladding systems. <\/em>We do not hold the relevant information for any buildings with other cladding or insulation systems.<\/p>"}

We expect building owners to be systematically reviewing the safety of their buildings as a matter of course. All buildings covered under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, which include schools, hospitals, and residential care premises, must have their fire risk assessment regularly reviewed so as to keep it up to date.<\/p> Schools are very safe environments in this regard as they are typically occupied during the daytime and have multiple exit routes. In addition, all schools must comply with the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, including having an up-to-date Fire Risk Assessment and conducting regular fire drills.<\/p> NHS trusts are locally responsible for their fire safety, and take it very seriously. Fire safety guidance specific to the NHS, Firecode, is provided to support them in doing this. Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, NHS organisations must, as far as is reasonably practical, make sure that everyone on the premises, or nearby, can escape safely if there is a fire. They will therefore consider the ban on combustible cladding as part of the regular fire risk assessments they carry out on their existing estate.<\/p>"}
