MHCLG and the Home Office are working closely with the fire safety sector to develop technical guidance to support the fire risk assessment of external wall systems. This guidance will support the sector to develop new training. Additionally, the industry-led Competence Steering Group will shortly publish its recommendations to increase competence within the built environment sector – including for fire engineers.
