'Serious questions' need to be asked after the death of Awaab Ishak, 2, housing secretary Michael Gove has said
The housing secretary said he wanted to "work with the council and others in order to make sure that RBH is in a position to do those repairs, to make sure that people are in decent and in safe homes."He added: "And, of course, it's a situation not just in Rochdale, but in other parts of the North West and indeed across the UK we do urgently need to address.
"The most important thing is making sure that people in the borough get the housing they deserve, and I'm looking forward to talking to councillors who I know, from every party, want to make sure this situation is put right. Labour's shadow levelling up and housing secretary, Lisa Nandy, said the government had to go further on regulation, as well as enforcement.
