Councils deplore Government guidance after Grenfell

The Government’s guidance on fire safety after the Grenfell Tower fire has been ‘mediocre,’ ‘contradictory,’ ‘disjointed’ or non-existent, councils have said in response to a Labour survey.

Ten out of 12 councils with financial concerns claimed the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government (MHCLG) offered insufficient or poor support.
