The government has committed money to remove aluminium composite material – or ACM – cladding from around 170 private high-rise buildings across England after losing a stand-off with some freeholders and developers, who were refusing to remove the covering.

ACM is similar to the material blamed for the rapid spread of the 2017 Grenfell Tower fire, which ripped through the building and claimed 72 lives.
