News summary

The final report on the Grenfell Tower fire, which killed 72 people in 2017, has been published, highlighting 'decades of failure' by the government and the construction industry. The inquiry, led by Sir Martin Moore-Bick, found that systematic dishonesty by firms marketing flammable cladding and insulation, as well as regulatory failings, were significant contributors to the disaster. Recommendations include consolidating construction regulation under a single entity and enhancing fire safety oversight. No single entity was deemed most responsible, reflecting a widespread failure across multiple levels. Bereaved families and survivors have called for justice, but criminal charges may take years due to the complexity of the investigation. Deputy Assistant Commissioner Stuart Cundy emphasized the need for a thorough review to ensure justice for the victims.
