Minutes:
The Committee considered the petition and noted that grants had previously funded the demolition and rebuilding of homes in Wales affected by precast reinforced concrete (PRC), suggesting that similar funding could be considered for RAAC remediation. Members agreed to write to the Cabinet Secretary for Housing and Local Government to seek details of interaction with the UK Government on a UK-wide approach, and to request confirmation of the RAAC situation for homes across Wales. The petition will remain open pending a response.
