Update on the new Compliance Plan Approach (CPA), Scottish Building Standards

The new Compliance Plan Approach (CPA) has been developed in response to the recommendations made by the 2018 Review Panel on Building Standards Compliance and Enforcement. The Review Panel was formed by the Ministerial Working Group on Building and Fire Safety set up following failings in the construction of Edinburgh school buildings and the fire at Grenfell Tower, London. The Review Panel identified that the building standards system in Scotland was not broken but needed to be strengthened, including compliance with building regulations. Frank Doherty, Team Leader at the Scottish Government’s Building Standards Division provides a presentation covering: An overview of the Compliance Plan Approach (CPA) – a key initiative aimed at strengthening compliance in building standards. Introduction to new guidance documents – these outline the steps that local authority building standards verifiers will need to follow when processing building warrant applications and completion certificates for defined High Risk Buildings (HRBs), from springtime, 2026. Purpose of the guidance – to support the implementation of Phase 1 of the CPA ahead of it becoming a legal requirement, (anticipated to be introduced following next years Scottish Parliament elections). Voluntary adoption of the CPA by industry – how industry can assist in trialling the CPA and provide feedback to assist with the development of future legislation.
