Yes, Mr. Montague can liaise with the clerk in relation to that. The witnesses' written submission asked us to look at the Netflix documentary "Grenfell: Uncovered" to see what could happen. It is a stark thought that that could possibly happen. We all know what happened there and it is something we do not want. We have been told we have buildings in which it could happen and that it nearly happened in an incident that was mentioned. We need to make sure remedial action is taken. Apart from paying people for work already done, we need to stop something possibly worse happening, that is, the loss of a single life. That would not be acceptable.
