A brief note on cladding tests to my MP

We hear updates of the number of samples from suspect buildings which have been found to be combustible - failed the test.  We are also told that "up to 100 samples per day" can be tested.  We're not told the total number of tests conducted and therefore the number of samples found not to be dangerous.

Now we have councils taking action in addition to that indicated by the state of their buildings' cladding, so the only news we get seems to be bad.  If it turns out eventually that 50%, 70%, 90% of buildings are not in fact a threat to their residents, it's going to look like scaremongering.

I believe it's irresponsible not to provide the full picture.  It won't help anybody who hasn't yet been given an answer one way or the other for their own home, but it might help with the credibility and ultimately the effectiveness of the whole exercise.

I hope you agree and can convey this message to ministers.
