Article summary

The Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government (MHCLG) has published its first progress report on the implementation of the Grenfell Tower Inquiry’s Phase 2 recommendations. The report also provides updates on Phase 1 recommendations related to Personal Emergency Evacuation Plans (PEEPs) for vulnerable people in high-rise buildings. It outlines progress across four key areas: (1) the construction industry; (2) fire and rescue services; (3) response and recovery; and (4) vulnerable people. MHCLG intends to publish quarterly reports in February, May, September, and December until all recommendations are fully implemented, a process expected to take at least four years.
