Regulation 16 Cancellation of initial notice: notice of contravention of building regulationsI1
England and Wales
Where an approver is of the opinion that an initial notice should be cancelled under section 52(1)(c) of the 1984 Act for contravention of any provision of building regulations, the approver must first give notice in writing to the person carrying out the work (“C”) specifying—
the requirement of building regulations which in the approver’s opinion has not been complied with, and
the location of the work which contravenes that requirement.
A notice given in accordance with paragraph (1) must inform C that if, by the end of the period specified in paragraph (3), C has neither pulled down nor removed the work nor effected such alterations in it as may be necessary to make it comply with building regulations, the approver will cancel the initial notice.
The period within which C is to remedy the contravention is 3 months beginning with the working day on which the notice under paragraph (1) is given.
