EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations amend the Building Regulations 2000. The amendments are made in regulation 2 as follows.

Paragraph (2) amends regulation 17K to provide an updated reference to the newest edition of the document “The Water Efficiency Calculator for New Dwellings” (published in September 2009, ISBN 978-1-4098-1827-4, available from Communities and Local Government Publications, PO Box 236, Wetherby, West Yorkshire, LS23 7NB, or online via the Communities and Local Government website www.communities.gov.uk).

Paragraph (3) omits regulation 22A, which has been superseded with effect from 22nd September 2008 by virtue of amendments to section 35A of the Building Act 1984 made by section 317 of the Housing and Regeneration Act 2008 (c.17).

Paragraph (4) adds to the list in Schedule 2A of work that is exempt from the requirement to give a building notice or to deposit full plans when carried out by persons specified in that Schedule.

Paragraph (1) of regulation 2 also contains a saving relevant to the amendment made by paragraph (3). The effect of the saving is to preserve the extension of the time limit for the prosecution of certain contraventions of building regulations where the contravention occurred before 22nd September 2008.

A full impact assessment has not been produced for these Regulations as no effect on the private or voluntary sectors is foreseen.
