Mastering the Powers in the BSA: Remediation Orders – Making Buildings Safe

We’re kicking off our two-part series on Powers in the BSA – Remediation Orders, Making Building Safe, with members of our BSA team alongside renowned Fire Safety Engineer, Al Brown.

The BSA introduced Remediation Orders (ROs) to help address fire safety defects and two years on from the introduction of the BSA there have been some notable successes. For those working in and for local authorities and the fire and rescue services, this session will help you better understand how ROs can assist in getting remediation works undertaken.

Together, we’ll consider issues including:

1. What’s the qualifying criteria, effective use of expert evidence and enforcement;
2. The inter-relationship with Housing Act powers; and
3.  Quality of Inspection Reports/FRAEW and gathering of Technical Evidence

The session will be followed by a Q&A with the panel.

Part 2 – Paying for Remediation – Remediation Contribution Orders and Building Liability Orders

Keep an eye out for an invitation to our second webinar on mastering the powers in the BSA, exploring how to recover the costs of addressing building safety defects.
