Who will fix (pay for) the problem? So far…. NHBC: NCQ (Greenwich), New Festival Quarter (Poplar) (fewer than a dozen; Inside Housing 6/11/18); Freeholder (Legal and General, Hounslow) The developer eg Bellway (NFQ; Prospect Place, Cardiff); Barratt (Citiscape).

Who can be made to pay? NHBC, insurers: 10 year time limit; needs to be breach of Building Regs Leaseholders: Tribunal decisions - Citiscape (but Barrats agreed to stump up); Green. Quarter Developer? Contract/tort/Defective Premises Act: privity problems; limitation periods (6 years). Bad PR? The state of Victoria, Australia: long-term, lowinterest loan whereby cladding rectification agreements (CRA) will help owners and owners corporations meet the rectification costs

Who can make sure that the problem is fixed? Local Council responsibility: can bring action if there is a housing ‘hazard’ under the Housing Act 2004? Safe with fire watch Fire Brigade: powers under the Regulatory Reform Fire Safety Order 2005? Power only to issue Prohibition order or interim measures? Safe with fire watch? Other insurers (following NHBC)? National government: using ‘policy pressure’?

Using Human Rights arguments to compel action/claim damages? Positive obligation to undertake preventive operational measures to protect an individual whose life is imminently at real risk Challenge 1: only ‘state actors’ are subject to positive obligation (not developers etc) Challenge 2: mainly used post event to claim damages: can it be used to compel action? Challenge 3: is there sufficient awareness of problem/likelihood of harm to trigger obligation? Cases show heightened awareness or risk in specific location
