£400m ACM Cladding Remediation Fund Open For Bids

The government made an announcement on 16 May 2018 that it would fully fund the removal and replacement of unsafe aluminium composite material (ACM) cladding on residential buildings which are 18 metres or over, owned by councils and housing associations. The Ministry of Housing Communities and Local Government (MHCLG) on 3 July 2018 provided further details of the Social Sector ACM Cladding Remediation Fund with information on how councils and housing associations can apply for this funding, including the scope of the fund and more details on how it will operate and the information required when applying. A fund of £400million is being made available and grants will be provided to cover all reasonable capital costs for the remediation of ACM cladding systems, which have failed the large scale fire performance tests, commissioned by the government in 2017.
