The review of the Building Control (Amendment) Regulations 2014 following the first twelve months of their operation is now well advanced. The impact of the regulations on the cost of single dwellings (including self builds) forms an important element of this review. Some 170 submissions were received during the public consultation process which concluded on 15 May 2015. A report prepared by my Department following its review of the submissions received is currently under consideration. On this basis, I expect to definitively conclude the review this month with a view to ensuring that any changes deemed appropriate will be effected as a matter of priority.
