UK’s former chief construction advisor to co-chair review following shocking evidence at Grenfell Inquiry
Paul Morrell has been announced as the co-chair of a government review into the testing of construction products following shocking disclosures from materials manufacturers at the Grenfell Inquiry.
Morrell, who was the government’s first chief construction advisor under Gordon Brown and David Cameron, will lead the independent review alongside legal expert in construction Anneliese Day QC.
The review, announced earlier this year, will examine how to strengthen the current system for testing construction products to provide confidence that these materials are safe and perform as marketed.
