Grenfell report blames decades of government failure and ‘systematic dishonesty’ of companies

‘I don’t believe they are sorry’: Grenfell survivors on their hopes for public inquiry

Grenfell Tower fire report: who was at fault and what was landlord’s role?

The UK's six-year public inquiry into the 2017 Grenfell Tower fire has published its final 1.7K-page report, concluding all 72 deaths to have been "avoidable" and attributing failures to "incompetence" as well as "dishonesty and greed."

BBC News

The report, chaired by Sir Martin Moore-Bick, states that following 1991's Knowsley Heights fire there were "many opportunities" for governments to identify the risks of combustible cladding and insulation, and received "numerous warnings" concerning these products from 2012-2017.

The report accuses the Building Research Establishment of "unprofessional conduct" and "inadequate practices" despite its reputation as a "leader in fire safety," and alleges companies selling dangerous cladding and insulation took part in "systemic dishonesty" and "deliberate and sustained" manipulation of testing processes.

The report names cladding and insulation companies Arconic, Celotex and Kingspan, architects Studio E, building companies Rydon and Harley Facades, and the Kensington and Chelsea Tenant Management Organisation as some of the groups baring responsibility.
