Mr. Se?n Balfe:

The Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage is responsible for the development of technical guidance document B. There was previously a group involved. The committee might remember an bord snip, which abolished the Building Regulations Advisory Group. That group sat with the Department with responsibility for housing and gave its input. It comprised industry representatives who were able to give inputs such as the ones the Cathaoirleach has mentioned, including increasing the height of timber-frame buildings and whatever else. I cannot speak for the Department but as I understand it, it is looking to re-establish that board. I do not know when it will happen.
