🤔 Will Lee Rowley's statement acknowledge the fact that, almost 7 years after Grenfell, an unacceptable number of innocent leaseholders are STILL trapped in the building safety crisis and STILL paying for the wrongdoing of others?
Or will it just be more warm words?
Good morning Jeremy Hunt
Leaseholders trapped in the building safety crisis have seen huge increases in buildings insurance premiums, some in excess of 1,000% 💸
Insurance Premium Tax adds 12%
Is it acceptable for HM Treasury to profiteer from this crisis❓
Treasury Committee
We told Department for Levelling Up, Housing & Communities that it’s too little, too late – still no one can tell us how many people are going to be helped and what ‘good’ will look like.

2036.
I suspect they haven't told leaseholders who live in those buildings how long they will have to wait.
✍️ 'This is not to say housing associations are free from blame'.
❌ '90% of residents rated communication and customer service negatively, with more than half picking the lowest grading of “very poor”'

.@MichaelGove tells James Riding he wants to make insulation and cladding manufacturers pay.
'This, he says, is “more difficult”, however, because of where some of these businesses are based. A construction products regulation white paper/green paper is “coming up”'

The PAS 9980 standard 'focuses on the assessment of risk to occupants and as such does not address the cost of insurance for property protection'
Insurers focus on property protection.
Leaseholders are charged extortionate premiums 💸
See the problem Lee Rowley❓
