They will be part of a new Fast Track system, designed to address delayes on new build case reviews and remediation decisions.<\/p>\n<p>The news follows months of questions about the BSR&#8217;s efficiency and more recently, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/building-control-news\/acqp-calls-immediate-removal-building-safety-regulator-from-hse\/152459\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">open condemnation<\/a> of the regulator&#8217;s place within HSE from the Association of Construction and Quality Professionals (ACQP), who argued that the agency risks repeating the \u201cvery regulatory failures it was designed to prevent\u201d.<\/p>\n<h3>The move is being presented as the natural evolution of the BSR<\/h3>\n<p>Alex Norris, minister for building safety, said:\u202f \u201cThe establishment of the Building Safety Regulator has been fundamental to\u202fcentralising safety in the\u202fconstruction process and it\u2019s time to take the next steps to build on that precedent and create a system that works for the sector whilst keeping residents and their safety at the heart of the process.\u202fThat\u2019s why we\u2019re announcing a package of reforms to the BSR today to enhance operations, reduce delays, and unlock the homes this country desperately needs.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Non-executive chair of the BSR Andy Roe, who was incident commander during the Grenfell fire in 2017, said: \u201cThe creation of the new Building Safety Regulator was a watershed moment for housing and construction in this country.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHowever, it is also clear that the BSR processes\u2019 need to continue to evolve and improve, to ensure that it plays its part in enabling the homes this country desperately needs to be built.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI look forward to working with colleagues both in industry and the BSR to tackle the current issues and delays head on and help get those homes built safely.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>Sectioning the BSR out of HSE was always an option, says HSE chair<\/h3>\n<p>HSE chair Sarah Newton said: \u201cSetting up an entirely new regulator has been complex and huge progress has been made in a short space of time.\u202fProtecting residents and making sure there is never another tragedy like Grenfell has been our priority throughout this process. We wish the new BSR team well in this most important mission.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are very proud of the work we have done to establish the BSR. It was always an option that once the new regulator was established that it would move out of HSE to enable the government to implement the Grenfell Public Inquiry recommendations and we will work hard to enable the smooth transition to the next stage.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The timeline of the shadow board and BSR&#8217;s transition have not yet been disclosed.<\/p>\n<h3>The Grenfell Inquiry endorsed a single construction regulator<\/h3>\n<p>The government partially accepted the findings of the <a href=\"https:\/\/webarchive.nationalarchives.gov.uk\/ukgwa\/20250319155650\/https:\/\/www.grenfelltowerinquiry.org.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">final Grenfell Inquiry <\/a>last year and this arms-length approach is considered the first step in making the regulator a stand-alone body.<\/p>\n<p>However, the BSR will not have jurisdiction over the product testing and certification industries, which will remain in the private sector. The inquiry recommended that the sector be nationalised and brought under state control.<\/p>\n<div class=\"mk-custom-module-container\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Two
