16th November 2024 - Jack Abbott MP on building safety crisis progress

Following on from having helped secure significant new funding for St Francis Tower and Churchmans House in Ipswich from the Government, I spoke to ITV Anglia about the building safety crisis.

Seven years on from the Grenfell Tower tragedy, the pace of remediation for unsafe buildings right across the country has been nothing short of disgracefully slow. But, with the Government's new funding, I hope that our town can finally turn a corner. It is high time that those responsible get on with the work to end this misery, so residents can once again return to normality after years of insecurity and limbo.
