Cladding remediation and proposed amendments to the Building Safety Bill

On 14 February, proposed amendments to the Building Safety Bill were announced by Michael Gove in a bid to help resolve the cladding crisis. Among them, a proposal that could see developers and product manufacturers blocked from the housing market through the refusal of planning permissions and building control sign-off on developments, should they fail to contribute to the cost of repairs to buildings.  To discuss the proposals from both a leaseholder and developer perspective, EG's professional and legal editor, Sarah Jackman, is joined by Andrew Parker – construction partner at Forsters – and Ryan Didcock – senior associate in the property litigation team at Forsters.  They look at the detail of the proposals, the timeline for Bill and next steps that each party should consider.
