Explanatory Memorandum

Building Regulations (Amendment) Act (Northern Ireland) 2009

2009 CHAPTER 4

2 March 2009

Introduction

These Explanatory Notes relate to the Building Regulations (Amendment) Act 2009 which received Royal Assent on 2 March 2009. They have been prepared by the Department of Finance and Personnel (“the Department”) in order to assist the reader in understanding the Act.  They do not form part of the Act and have not been endorsed by the Assembly.

The notes need to be read in conjunction with the Act. They do not, and are not meant to be, a comprehensive description of the Act. So where a section or part of a section or Schedule does not seem to require an explanation or comment, none is given.
