Will the Cabinet Secretary support the Welsh Cladiators' call for a Welsh building safety forum for leaseholders and residents and if so, when will it be established?

Answered by Cabinet Secretary for Housing and Local Government | Answered on 05/12/2024

As outlined in WQ94871, my officials are exploring the creation of a Welsh Building Safety forum for leaseholders. I am unable to provide a timeline at this point; exploration and engagement on the idea is ongoing.

At the last Strategic Stakeholder Group meeting, a suggestion regarding medium to long term funding facilities for managing agents and management companies was made. My officials are currently taking advice on the proposal, including legal advice.
