178 London Fire Brigade: Week 7
鈥淚t was the most appalling example of institutional failure in recent British history, and we were part of that鈥�
Andy Roe, Commissioner of the London Fire Brigade, made a series of frank admissions this week. He said the LFB was aware of every single problem that contributed to the Grenfell Tower fire in advance of the night. A former LFB Commissioner, Ron Dobson, also gave evidence. He answered questions on why some of the recommendations that the Brigade committed to after the 2009 Lakanal House fire weren鈥檛 addressed.
