Compliance with Part L1 of the 2002 Building Regulations: an investigation on the reasons for poor compliance
09.May.2006
This report was prepared by Future Energy Solutions on behalf of the Partnership's Chairman's Advisory Group. The report sets out the findings of interviews carried out in November with Building Control Officers aimed at determining the reasons for non-compliance with Part L1 of the Building Regulations 2002. The report also provides recommendations and pointers on possible approaches that could be adopted to improve the current non-compliance within the construction industry.
The survey included questions concerning the impending revised building regulations of April 2006. This aspect of the research was premature as the regulations had yet to be published. The Partnership intends researching the introduction of these regulations 12 months after introduction.
