The changing landscape of building safety

The built environment industry has seen a lot of change, particularly in the last five years. These changes have been in response to various reviews of the way buildings are constructed and managed, leading to the most significant legislative changes for many years. The aim of the new legislation is to make homes safer by implementing a new regime.

Items of legislation that will have a significant impact on building safety have been through Parliament recently, with additional supporting legislation due in the coming months and years. We will be updating this page as the changes take place.
