Fire Safety and Cladding

Proceeding contribution from Kit Malthouse (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 23 January 2019. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Fire Safety and Cladding.

Exactly. Although the hon. Gentleman is right to say that people sleep overnight in hotels, staff members are present in hotels and office buildings. There is always an awake watch in a hotel and that is not necessarily the case in a residential block. However, those matters are obviously open to review, and if the hon. Gentleman wants to put forward evidence that contradicts the expert panel’s, I will be more than happy to consider it. On all the issues, I do not want to give hon. Members the impression that our mind is closed. If evidence is presented to show that measures should

be taken because there is a significant safety concern in buildings other than high-rise residential buildings, we will be happy to look at it.
