The fact that a lesser specification panel was used than originally specified is totally irrelevant. The other panel would only have been suggested at the behest of the client.
Then it would have been ensured that it met all the standards and regulations.
This is also not a class war as Corbyn would like to promote. This cladding will have been used universally.
This why the current testing regime is helping no one.

It did meet standards, IF AND ONLY IF, certain precautions were taken with any design. That amounts to encasing the flammable insulation with non-flammable materials. Even then the restrictions are for insulation above 18m. As if buildings and/or floors below than 18m are any less of a problem. A 7 storey building could easily go up on flames in the same way where a fire starts on the 1st floor. 6 floors is still a lot of potential deaths.
