Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action

Housing and Retrofitting: Discussion

Mr. James Benson:

To bolster that and alleviate any fears about the quality of the new stock, any new stock or builds will be in compliance with the building standards in the Building Control (Amendment) Regulations 2014. Even before the updated standards come into effect in October of this year and a further substantial completion takes place in October of next year, the level of existing standards, such as the conservation of fuel and energy in Part L, which has been in place since 2011, is very high anyway, so the quality will be there in new and recent stock.
