The Assistant Director, Barbican and Property Services, was heard in respect of a recent meeting with the Deputy Commander of the London Fire Brigade.  Members noted that, post Grenfell, the ‘stay put’ advice remained, with more emphasis on the Fire Brigade, service providers, the City of London Corporation and its residents working together to ensure our premises are as safe as possible.  The Deputy Commander was aware of and satisfied with the work of the City Corporation is doing in keeping fire safety at the forefront.
