Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government

Building Regulations (Fire Safety): Discussion

Ms Sarah Neary:

Working with existing buildings is more complex than a new build. There is no doubt about that. In the context of part B, we wanted to deal with that. Section 7 is a new section that deals with works to existing buildings. It takes a cascading approach on dealing with them to incorporate the most of what is in a new build. Where that is not possible, cascading means down and we can go into that in more detail.
