"In 2017, planning permission was sought to add more flats on top of the block, with the new storeys supported by a timber frame. The application was refused, but then granted in 2018 following an appeal."..
"The developer of the building was Chadwell Properties and the current freeholder, Arinium, took over ownership of the block in January 2020."..

Dagenham fire: what happened and what we know about the building
A fire at a block in Dagenham on Monday has sparked fresh debate about the slow progress of cladding...
In April 2023, the London Fire Brigade issued an enforcement notice to Block Management UK, the management company for the building, urging it to review its fire risk assessment and emergency plan and implement preventative measures.
"Spectrum House joins a long list of other buildings that have had major fires since 2017."

"When Sir Martin Moore-Bick’s report is published next week, the immediate focus will quite rightly be on what he says contributed to so many deaths, who is held responsible and what he recommends to prevent anything like it ever happening again."
"Campaigners will be looking to the government to pledge to implement the recommendations in full, in contrast to what happened after the interim report."
"It’s now two-and-a-half years since then-housing secretary Michael Gove promised “tough new measures” to “make industry pay for building safety”, but the problems continue and the fires keep happening."..
"In its final policy platform published last October, Labour stated unequivocally that “leaseholders should be protected from the costs of remediating cladding and non-cladding defects in all buildings irrespective of circumstance”."..
The manifesto in June was vaguer, but the party promised “decisive action to improve building safety”. It also pledged to “review how to better protect leaseholders from costs and take steps to accelerate the pace of remediation across the country”..
Publication of the final report on Grenfell next week was always going to demand a decisive response from the Labour government. The Dagenham fire will only increase the pressure.
