Real Estate Litigation Partner, Ross Wilson features in RCI Magazine discussing the Leasehold and Freehold Reform Act 2024.
On the 4th September 2024, the Grenfell Inquiry published its Phase 2 report. The salient findings can be broadly condensed into two issues, firstly there was issues of systematic dishonesty, secondly, deliberate and sustained strategies to manipulate testing processes, thirdly, conflicts of interest affecting those who were guardians of the public interest, fourthly there was prolonged knowledge of the risks but failure to act and finally a persistent indifference to fire safety.
Ross states that: “Change is overdue and a great deal of pressure will now be exerted to try and achieve this… The real world impact and implications of any future changes must be considered in much greater detail before being implemented. A failure to do this will mean any changes will be of no tangible use to anyone”
