Grenfell Tower fire inquiry head Sir Martin Moore-Bick 'to increase probe's scope'

The chair of the Grenfell Tower fire inquiry is reportedly prepared to increase the scope of his investigation and consider the "broad" causes of the blaze.

Campaigners have called for Sir Martin Moore-Bick to be replacedafter he said the inquiry would be "pretty well limited" to examining the causes of the fire, how it spread and how to prevent similar fires in future.

However, a source told the Press Association the retired judge was also looking to examine issues tracing back to building regulations at the time the block was erected.

"He is very happy to look at why there were warnings that weren't listened to, these were the allegations," the source said.
