The Building Safety Act 2022 (Consequential Amendments etc) Regulations 2023, amends the Building Control terminology in preparation for a new regime for higher risk buildings, which came into force from 1 October 2023

This instrument makes amendments which are consequential on Part 3 of the Building Safety Act 2022 coming into force. Part 3 of that Act makes amendments to Building Act 1984. The amendments in this instrument mainly replace references in primary legislation to deposit of plans with references to applications for building control approval. It also includes consequential amendments which reflect that the Building Safety Act 2022 transfers procedures for appeals under the Building Act 1984 from the magistrates’ court to the to the First-tier Tribunal. This is required in local acts where additional building control requirements have been imposed that include a right of appeal to the magistrates’ court.
