To give residents in lower-rise buildings of 11-18 metres peace of mind, we are establishing a generous scheme to ensure that cladding removal on these buildings can take place where required. Costs for remediation are building-specific and can be very high, running into tens of thousands of pounds. With this scheme the Government is providing assurance that leaseholders will not pay more than £50 per month for the removal of dangerous cladding. We will be releasing further details of the finance scheme for 11-18 metres buildings.
