Sir Keir Starmer

Labour — Holborn and St Pancras

Speaking in the House of Commons on 4 September 2024

Debate

Grenfell Tower Inquiry Phase 2 Report

Contribution

I thank my hon. Friend for raising that very real issue. One of the things we need to do is look at what further powers may be necessary. We cannot suggest for a minute that the existing legislation, guidance and policy is sufficient. We need more powers, and we will look at that and bring proposals back to the House. There will be a general debate, of course, because I know that many Members will want to discuss particular issues facing constituents who are fearful of the conditions in which they live.
