Building Safety Regulator
Update information on the commencement of Part 4 of the Building Safety Act
The commencement of Part 4 of the Building Safety Act from Monday 8th April means that Principle Appointed Persons will be prompted to submit their applications for Building Assessment Certificates. Requests for protection staff to join multi-disciplined teams to assess the applications and advise the Building Safety Regulator will start to arrive. The National Coordination Hub in London will coordinate the requests and direct them to the appropriate regional manager for resources to be allocated.
Supported by the Protection and Reform Unit, Fire and Rescue Services have been working for many months to prepare for this work and we are confident they will embrace the change to ensure that the new regulatory role is successfully implemented. The Protection and Reform Unit remains available to assist in any way possible.
The Health and Safety Executive has also produced three new guidance pages to assist with the commencement of Part 4 of the Building Safety Act.
