Second report follows hearings to determine how the Kensington tower block came to be in a condition that allowed fire to spread
The final Grenfell Tower Inquiry report will be published on 4 September, it has been announced.
The second report into the 2017 disaster, which claimed 72 lives, comes after a seven-year long inquiry which examined 1,500 witness statements and 300,000 documents.
A brief notice on the inquiry website said: 鈥淭he inquiry has written to core participants to inform them that the phase two report will be published on Wednesday 4 September 2024.
鈥淔urther information about the arrangements for publication will be published in due course.鈥�
The report follows the final hearing in the inquiry鈥檚 second phase, which examined how the tower block came to be in a condition that allowed fire to spread, in November 2022. The first report into the inquiry, which established a factual narrative of events, was published in October 2019.

It said criminal trials for the Grenfell Tower fire will not begin until 2027.
