Building Safety Bill – what’s coming and how will it affect you?
This online event took place on 03 May 2022 and is now available on-demand. The content in this recording was correct as of the original webinar date.
In anticipation of the adoption of the Building Safety Bill, our specialist compliance and regulatory team give an overview of the measures proposed in the Bill.
This is the first of a series of webinars on the sweeping changes to building safety to be introduced in response to the ongoing Grenfell Tower Inquiry through the Building Safety Bill and anticipated secondary legislation.
Topics covered include:
- Background to the bill
- Who is affected
- What buildings are in scope
- What new responsibilities will be introduced
- Practical measures for the next phase
The speakers also provide details of our Building a Safer Future series. Designed to help you navigate the transition to the new building safety rules and procedures, emphasising the preparations you can make now, and the practical changes that will be required in your day-to-day building management and construction working practices.
