The Grenfell Tower Inquiry is a British public inquiry into the Grenfell Tower fire, which killed 72 people and destroyed Grenfell Tower on 14 June 2017. To date the inquiry has been running for seven years since it was set up in 2017 and has disclosed over 320,000 documents to core participants, received over 1,600 witness statements, and held more than 300 public hearings. More than 530 individuals and organisations have been granted core participant status which it is believed to be the largest number accredited to a public inquiry in the UK.
The Phase 1 report from the inquiry was published at the end of 2019, whilst the Phase 2 report has suffered a number of delays first expected to be published in the summer of 2024. The final phase 2 hearings closed in May of 2024 and the final report is now due to be published on Wednesday September 4, 2024. A Grenfell Tower Inquiry website was set up to provide the latest information on the Grenfell Inquiry, including details of hearings, evidence and how to contact the Inquiry team: https://www.grenfelltowerinquiry.org.uk/.
