The Grenfell Tower Inquiry Podcast - 194 Aftermath of the fire: The Council: Week 2

Download 194 Aftermath of the fire: The Council: Week 2

This week we heard different views from senior managers as to how the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea coped in the aftermath of the Grenfell Tower fire. We discovered that the chief executive initially rejected offers of support because he had “great confidence” in the council. And the inquiry heard reports that - on the night after the fire - some residents who had been evacuated from nearby buildings ended up sleeping in their cars or in parks because the council failed to inform them about alternative accommodation.
