Concrete Block Levy: Discussion

This question has come up already and I apologise for repeating it but it is important. Who pays this bill? We have an unmerciful mess on our hands between mica, pyrite and 100,000 apartments with fire safety defects across the country. The CIF says we have not seen proposals targeting those responsible for the defects. I am not sure we have heard proposals from the CIF as to how we target those responsible.
Initiatives are being taken in the UK under the Building Safety Act and other proposals are being spoken about. Is blocking developers or contractors from trading if they have been found to walk away from defects they have caused something CIF would support?
