Pic: APThe government is partially to blame for the Grenfell Tower tragedy because of"faulty and ambiguous" government guidance, Michael Gove has said.
He made the admission in an interview with The Sunday Times as he placed a deadline on unsafe blocks.The inquiry, chaired by Sir Martin Moore-Bick, is yet to deliver its final report, "I believe that was so faulty and ambiguous that it allowed unscrupulous people to exploit a broken system in a way that led to tragedy," Mr Gove added.It comes after the inquiry's final hearing in November heard that firms appeared to have used the inquiry to"position themselves for any legal proceedings" that may follow it, instead of showing remorse.
"Those who haven't will face consequences. They will not be able to build new homes," Mr Gove added.
