Maintaining confidence in our regulatory activities depends on assuring quality. As a result we have set up a new Business Assurance Team with responsibility for developing and implementing an assurance framework, based on the Three Lines of Defence Model. This is your opportunity to help shape a high-quality, responsive and efficient second-line assurance function in support of our Accounting Officer, Directors, Board and Committees.

Contractors warned they ‘must demonstrate’ safety measures to new regulator
Chief inspector of buildings Peter Baker
Contractors cannot rely on building control to be the ultimate judge of their safety, the head of the new Building Safety Regulator (BSR) has said.
Chief inspector of buildings Peter Baker told
Construction News that the industry must move away from “an over-reliance on the building control body being the final check and arbiter of safety”.
In an interview following his appointment as head of the body that is being set up as part of government reforms in the wake of the Grenfell Tower fire, Baker said contractors should start preparing for new procedures that are likely to be in place in around 18 months’ time.
