Section 123 Delegation of functions where building safety authority is accountable person for category 1 buildingI1

This section applies where a county council or county borough council is both the building safety authority for a category 1 building and an accountable person for the building.

The council must make all reasonable efforts to arrange under section 101(1)(b) of the Local Government Act 1972 (c. 70) for its functions as the building safety authority for the building to be exercised by another building safety authority.

Where such arrangements are in force in relation to a category 1 building, the functions of the building safety authority for the building must be exercised in accordance with the arrangements (and section 101(4) of the Local Government Act 1972 does not apply).
