Scottish government ‘asleep at the wheel’ on post-Grenfell safety
Scotland's First Minister Humza Yousaf at the Lord Roberts Monument in Kelvingrove Park, Glasgow, to call on people across Scotland to vote SNP to Exit Brexit, February 26, 2024
SCOTTISH LABOUR housing spokesman Mark Griffin took aim at the Scottish government yesterday for its lack of urgency in replacing the flammable cladding on dozens of buildings.
Only two buildings in Scotland have had Grenfell-style cladding removed, official figures show.
The Housing (Cladding Remediation) (Scotland) Bill is yet to make it through stage one of the Holyrood process, which starts today, while just two of the 105 buildings identified as having the lethal cladding have been made safe.
