Speaking in the House of Lords on 15 December 2025

Debate

Building Safety Regulator (Establishment of New Body and Transfer of Functions etc.) Regulations 2026

Contribution

The report raised a concern about the building control independent panel if the Government decide either to move to a national authority for building control functions or to remove the ability of private building control approvers to provide approval. They must set out publicly how they intend to ensure sufficient supply of registered building inspectors to perform these functions. Many witnesses were positive about the impact of the BSR regulations on the building control profession but expressed a desire for greater communication and feedback as a result of the legislation. How will the Government ensure that there is clear communication from the BSR to spread good practice and consistency?
