Government warned about cladding in official report

A public inquiry has been ordered into the Grenfell fire looking at the materials used on the exterior of the building, as well as what fire safety measures were in place. Reviews of high-rise blocks around the UK are already under way.  Channel 4 News understands that the government was warned about inflammable cladding used on buildings in an official report. But the same report suggested that current guidelines were adequate.
