  • (NHS and healthcare ACM) ACM CONFIRMED but THE BUILDING IS NOT NAMED IN ANY SOURCE. Southwark News: ‘Following an independent review by specialist fire engineers at Arup, one small non-patient area at King’s College Hospital, Denmark Hill, was identified as potentially having the same cladding as that used on Grenfell Tower’ and ‘It has since been confirmed that the sample tested positive’. Construction Enquirer 05/07/2017: ‘a test sample taken from an office building at King’s College Hospital in south London failed an ACM fire safety test’ (https://www.constructionenquirer.com/2017/07/05/three-hospitals-fail-cladding-fire-safety-test/). ITV News 04/07/2017 the same. The trust had already removed the cladding as a precaution. Because it is described as a small administrative office building it is probably NOT the Golden Jubilee Wing - that is an inference from the wording, not a fact
