Council votes to drop Grenfell Tower TMO
Residents ‘have lost confidence’ in body

Kensington and Chelsea Council has voted unanimously to end its contract with the organisation which managed Grenfell Tower.

The council said Kensington and Chelsea Tenant Management Organisation (TMO) will no longer manage its social housing stock “because it no longer has the confidence of residents.”

Deputy council leader Kim Taylor-Smith, who called for a new management structure to be established, told the meeting on Wednesday night: "We are listening to residents and consulting on how they want their homes and neighbourhoods to be managed in the future."
