THE SNP Scottish government has been accused of a “scandalous” lack of urgency after it was revealed that, seven years after the Grenfell disaster, not a single property in Scotland needing cladding remediation has had the work completed. 

Figures released to the Scottish Labour Party today through a freedom of information request show that 107 properties across the country have been identified as having the lethal cladding.

The same cladding turned a fire in a flat at North Kensington’s Grenfell Tower in London into an inferno which burned for 60 hours at the cost of 72 lives, the deadliest civilian fire in Britain since World War II.
