THREAD: The Government is giving £5 billion to remove unsafe cladding and we guarantee all eligible applications to the Building Safety Fund will be able to proceed #FireSafetyBill

But this relies on building owners, who are responsible for the safety of their buildings, to provide the correct information so we can quickly approve eligible applications. So far….

…Of 2,820 applications to the Building Safety Fund – we have verified 668 as eligible and we are considering 170 more. But…

1,141 or 40% of applications have either not provided any supporting information or insufficient information. Despite numerous follow ups and prompts to provide it.

In addition 407 or 14% of applicants did not meet the eligibility criteria and 434 or 15% registrants withdrew their applications..

We urge all eligible building owners to submit the correct information ASAP so we can ensure people are safer in their own homes.
