These Regulations amend the Building Regulations 1985. The principal amendments (regulation 2(4) and the Schedule) are the substitution of new Parts, with changed requirements, for Parts F (Ventilation), G (Hygiene), H (Drainage and Waste Disposal), and L (Conservation of Fuel and Power) in Schedule 1 to the 1985 Regulations. Regulation 2(5) amends regulation 11 of the 1985 Regulations to remove the requirement to give a building notice or deposit full plans in certain defined circumstances where the work consists only of the installation of a hot water supply system. Consequential amendments are made to the Building (Approved Inspectors etc) Regulations 1985. Regulation 4 contains transitional provisions.
