This briefing note explains the requirements of the Building Safety Act 2022 and the Government’s proposals for secondary legislation.

The requirements of the Act will not change, although the dates for implementation may.

The proposals indicate the Government’s current thinking but may change. Readers should not assume that all proposals will become law.

Readers should also be aware that changes to timings and Government thinking could occur over the next 12 – 18 months. APS will endeavour to update our Briefing Notes in line with changes. This briefing note has been prepared in conjunction with The Property Institute.
