Khan described the fire as a "preventable accident that didn't need to happen", adding that the "tragedy we're seeing is a outcome of the mistakes and neglect from politicians from the council and from the government".
Mr Cundy said on Sunday that the death toll of 58 was based on reports from the public - including 30 deaths that already have been confirmed, and reports of people who are missing and presumed to have been killed. Stuart Cundy told reporters in London ahead of a minute's silence for the victims of last Wednesday's catastrophe in North Kensington.
"There is considerable damage within Grenfell Tower", he said.
The investigation will include areas such as the construction, renovation and maintenance of the building and fire safety procedures, he said.
On Sunday Chancellor Philip Hammond said there would be an investigation to see if building rules had been violated in reference to the cladding which had swathed the building, allegedly to improve the view from nearby luxury flats, and may have accelerated the blaze.
The new exterior cladding used in a renovation on London's Grenfell Tower may have been banned under United Kingdom building regulations, two British ministers said Sunday as police continued their criminal investigation into the inferno that killed at least 58 people.
Former North Korea detainee Otto Warmbier dies
Warmbier, a University of Virginia student, was medically evacuated from North Korea and flown to Cincinnati late last Tuesday. President Donald Trump condemned North Korea's brutality after Mr Warmbier's death, saying the USA mourned its latest victim.
More than 200 firefighters and 40 fire trucks were involved in operations to douse the blaze, which last for several hours.
At Downing Street on Saturday afternoon, the Prime Minister met 16 people, including victims, residents, community leaders and volunteers, following the devastating blaze at the west London tower block.
In addition, British health authorities will provide long-term bereavement counseling for those who lost loved ones in the tragedy.
Mrs May said after the meeting that the response in the hours immediately following the tragedy was "not good enough". Anger among residents has been mounting in recent days as information about the missing has been scanty and efforts to find temporary housing have faltered.
Speaking as he left the church with his wife Saadiya, Khan said: "I've spent time with the local community, not just the Christian congregation, but members of all faiths here at the church, grieving, sharing their stories".
But the identification of the victims appears to be proving very hard, which experts attribute to the extreme heat of the fire.
