Agenda item

The Chair introduced the report which covers on the LGA’s building safety

related work since its last meeting.

Following the brief discussion, Members made the following comments:

·       Members raised that there were still massive problems with the Waking watch costs which would require further discussions with the Grenfell Task Group.

·       Members commented private building owners applying to government funds were being silenced with gagging clauses, stopping them from speaking to the press or other parties without government approval.

Decision:

            Members of the Safer and Stronger Communities Board noted the report.

Action:

·       Officers to pick up on gagging clauses and update the Board at the next meeting.
