Scotland’s Cladding Remediation Programme update: Q3 2025

Key points

• As at 30 September 2025, the Cladding Remediation Programme had received 1,062 expressions of interest (EoIs) via the Single Open Call.
• Half of the EoIs were submitted by factors or property managers and almost half by social landlords.
• As at 30 September 2025, the Cladding Remediation Programme had identified that 368 of the EoIs received as part of the Single Open Call were not eligible for funding from the Cladding Remediation Programme to carry out an SBA.
• As at 30 September 2025, the Cladding Remediation Programme had issued initial grant or funding offers in relation to 478 EoIs. The vast majority of these initial grant or funding offers related to EoIs that had been submitted by Local Authorities and Registered Social Landlords.
• As at 30 September 2025, in order to expedite progress towards assessment, where EoIs had been submitted by landlords of social housing, SG issued initial offers of grants and asked that these building owners carry out checks to ensure that the buildings meet the criteria for an SBA. This means that, for an unknown number of buildings in relation to these EoIs where an initial offer of grant has been made, no further action will be taken because they are found not to meet the criteria.
• As at 30 September 2025, the Cladding Remediation Programme had been informed that 16 Single Building Assessments (SBAs), based on the specification published in June 2024, had been completed.
• All 16 completed SBAs identified that remediation work was required.
• As at 30 September 2025, urgent interim measures were in place in buildings relating to six of the completed SBAs. Remediation work had started in buildings relating to two of the completed SBAs, including one where urgent interim measures were also in place.
• The Cladding Remediation Programme’s total expenditure from financial year 2021/22 to 30 September 2025 was £14.2 million.
