Conclusion
We welcome the location of the regulator within the Health and Safety Executive and agree that it has the experience and expertise to implement the new building safety Pre-legislative scrutiny of the Building Safety Bill 61 regime. We are satisfied that the provisions in the Bill already mandate a regulatory model focused as much on inspection during construction as on sanctions for non- compliance.

13. The use of delegated powers is essential for Government to respond quickly to an evolving evidence base on building safety and any emerging risks. Through secondary legislation, the Secretary of State will be able to make regulations that support the Building Safety Regulator in shaping and flexing the assurance regime based on evidence of risk; while providing clarity to the sector on its responsibilities and duties.
