RESOLVING NEW PROVIDENCE WHARF (NPW) CLADDING

Rejected 11 signatures

What the petition asks

Grenfell is one of the greatest tragedies in recent history. We share a collective responsibility to prevent such a disaster ever happening again. NPW has ACM cladding that must be removed. 18 months on from Grenfell, Ballymore - builder, freeholder and manager, has failed to make NPW safe
Ballymore's stance flies in the face of clear and repeated calls from the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities, Local Government and Mayor Biggs ​not to mention the repeated requests from residents and leaseholders.

We welcome Mayor Biggs` unequivocal message that `Ballymore has a clear responsibility of care and that developers and building owners should pay for cladding and remediation, not leaseholders`.

Ballymore can no longer be allowed to avoid their responsibilities. Now is the time for them to fulfill their obligations and pay their full part in ensuring we live in a Tower Hamlets that is safe for all and where company and personal profit does not take precedence over lives.

Why it was rejected

It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.

We understand that you are concerned about the replacement of unsafe cladding on buildings but we are not sure what action you would like the UK Government or Parliament to take.

You could start a new petition asking the Government to change the law so freeholders are responsible for the cost of replacing cladding on buildings if that is something you would like to see happen.
