The former chief executive of the firm which ran Grenfell Tower has claimed it had no role in emergency planning when the fire broke out.

Robert Black, who headed the Kensington and Chelsea tenant management organisation until the end of December last year – told the public inquiry that the company didn’t have the resources or the authority to deal with such a disaster.
