Government Announces Support for Leaseholders Over Unsafe Cladding

The government has announced funding to help protect leaseholders living in buildings affected by unsafe cladding. Support will be provided through the existing cladding safety scheme, with priority given to those facing the greatest risk.

According to the report, funding will be available for buildings under 11 metres. The measures also include steps to make it easier for the Building Safety Regulator to operate.

These developments are relevant for UK letting agents and inventory clerks managing properties in affected buildings, as they may impact safety compliance and property management processes.
