Minister releases PWC Report on 'Leaky Homes' 22 December 2009
A PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) report released today on the size and cost of the weathertightness problem reinforces the Government's work towards assisting affected homeowners, Building and Construction Minister Maurice Williamson said today.
"The review estimates that between 22,000 and 89,000 homes are affected.
The Government accepts PwC's consensus forecast that around 42,000 dwellings built between 1992 and 2008 could have been affected. "The report says it is likely that only a minority of these leaky homes - around 3500 - have had repairs done to date, and around 9000 failures had now gone beyond the 10-year legal liability limit period.
