In the aftermath of the Grenfell tragedy and the widespread fire and safety issues that have come to light, we are aware that a very serious consequence has been on the cost of PII insurance, and the scope of cover available, for both consultants and contractors. This may well be making it unviable for firms and individuals to carry on working in the sector, particularly where it involves higher rise buildings and external wall remediation.
The Government is taking this issue extremely seriously and needs more detailed information on the extent of the problems companies face. To this end, the Government and the Construction Leadership Council’s PII sub-group, made up of people representing all sectors of the industry, have drawn up this anonymous survey to help provide a clearer picture. It will only take a few minutes of your time but the information we receive is vital.
This survey will close on 12 March.
