The Building Safety Act (BSA) came into effect on 1 April 2023, with further duties introduced from 1 October of the same year.
The Act represents years of work following the Grenfell Tower tragedy and created three new regulators to oversee every aspect of residential building from start to finish, and during occupation. It also amended existing legislation including the Building Act 1984 and the Defective Premises Act 1972.
