Lord Beaumont of Whitley

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether there has been full compliance with Part L of the building regulations in all new dwellings built in the last year. [HL1219]

The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State, Department for Communities and Local Government
(Baroness Andrews)

I refer the noble Lord to the Answers I gave on 16 January, (Official Report, col. WA 248).

No central register of non-compliance is kept so it is not possible to state the level of compliance with Part L of the building regulations in all new dwellings built within the last year. An independent assessment of compliance with part L (2006) is due to begin shortly.
