The owner of the Olympic Village development in Stratford, east London, has been ordered by a judge to pay £18m towards fire remediation work in what has been described as “an early win for Michael Gove’s flagship Building Safety Act.”

Build-to-rent developer Get Living, the parent company of the Stratford Village Development Partnership, will now have to pay back millions of government money towards remediation work on its development after it lost at a first-tier tribunal.
