Building Safety Bill

Proceeding contribution from Hilary Benn (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 20 April 2022. It occurred during Debate on bills on Building Safety Bill.

I am extremely grateful to the Minister for giving way. In respect of the point that he has just made, have the Government made an estimate of the number of residential buildings below 11 metres where there may be a case for extensive remediation works? I am just trying to follow the logic of the Government’s position. They say that there is not really a problem with buildings below 11 metres, which is why they do want to include them, but if there is not a problem, surely the Government would not be having to do much in respect of those buildings, because there are very few of them—so the Minister says.
