The Grenfell fire disaster has brought back memories of other fire tragedies in high rise blocks.
In 2009 six people, including three children, died on the 10th and 11th floors of Lakanal House in the London borough of Southwark.
Louise Christian is the solicitor who represented the families of the Lakanal House victims at the inquest into their deaths.
She says there has to be an urgent review of building regulations regarding tower blocks.
Speaking on Radio 4's World at One, she said:
"It's unbelievable that Kensington and Chelsea... that must be one of the richest places in the world... couldn't afford to install a sprinkler system in this very high tower block to protect the people in it".
Harriet Harman, Labour MP for Peckham, calls on the Government to say "those people who suffered" will get legal representation "so they won't have to sit in the public gallery while other people's QCs speak".

The leader of Kensington and Chelsea Council, which owns the Grenfell Tower block, has said "when the public inquiry is held we will find out more about any design faults".
Councillor Nick Paget-Brown told Martha Kearney they were "working closely with the London Fire Brigade" to identify risks in other high rise buildings owned by the council.
When asked whether they would be fitting sprinklers in other blocks that currently don't have a system, Mr Paget-Brown said "we would need technical advice".
He said: "My understanding of the technical design of a sprinkler system is that it needs to be embedded and therefore you might create additional hazards."

The new MP for Richmond Park Zac Goldsmith has asked the housing minister to offer assurances to tower block residents across the capital that they will be safe.
He said residents from across the capital have contacted him and were increasingly "anxious" about their own safety.
He said the government must deal with it as a "matter of urgency", and ensure tower blocks were safe "in a matter of days, not weeks and certainly not months".
Conservative MP Jeremy Lefroy has called for the Grenfell Tower inquiry to be held under the 2005 Inquiries Act - which compels witnesses to appear and give evidence under oath.
