    When you look at what has started the fires at the Lacrosse, and the three High-rises in Dubai – smoking and barbecues, exacerbated by storage of other crap and drying laundry – a sensible policy would be to say that if smoking and barbecues, laundry and storage, were banned from balconies and this was enforced AND there were sprinklers in the building,  the cladding issue would be irrelevant.

    The Grenfell fire is a special case: the flames would probably never have reached the cladding if there had been sprinklers in the flats.
