In July 2017, the Government commissioned an Independent Review into Building Regulations and Fire Safety. The review was published in May 2018 and identified several issues relating to the existing building control system. The Government accepted the report’s findings and we will consult in Spring 2019 on the best way to implement its recommendations.
