Paragraph 5 of the Schedule inserts in those Regulations new regulations 44ZB and 44ZC, which modify or exclude the new requirements in certain cases.
Part 2 of the Schedule contains related amendments to the Building (Approved Inspectors etc.) Regulations 2010 (S.I. 2010/2215), as they apply in England.
