On 29 April 2021, the government’s Fire Safety Bill became law. The passing of this bill means that building owners or managers of multi-occupied residential buildings must conduct a fire risk assessment for each building and take steps to reduce the risk of fire spreading.

As a responsible landlord, we have an ongoing programme in place to check our buildings and carry out any work required to ensure that our buildings comply with the government guidance. We are making applications to the Government’s Building Safety Fund for all eligible buildings. This fund is intended to cover the costs of works related to fixing defects in the external wall system.
We are doing all we can to protect leaseholders from picking up the costs of repair and remediation. We will exhaust every possible avenue available to us, including seeking to recover costs from the original developers.
We are calling on the government to do more to protect leaseholders from these costs and we will continue to keep you updated of any further developments of this issue. If you are in hardship, please speak to us. We want to support our residents and recognise that this is a stressful time for many. There may be options that we can discuss with you that can help.
