Background

The Wang Fuk Court fire in Hong Kong raises serious concerns about China-made building materials safety that could affect the UK.
 
The UK’s British National Overseas and Hongkonger community has direct links to Hong Kong and needs clarity on the fire’s causes and accountability.
 
A fully independent investigation and full transparency are essential to identify wider risks.
 
Parliamentary scrutiny and review of UK inspection processes on china-made materials are needed to safeguard UK safety.
