Latest News - New Building Regulation Charges as from 1st October 2010
As from 1st October 2010 new building regulation application charges come into effect. The new fees are as a direct result of new legislation -The Building (Local Authority Charges) Regulations 2010 which authorises all local authorities in England and Wales to individually fix their charges based on the full recovery of their costs for carrying out their main building control functions relating to building regulations.
Most applications will be continue to be subject to a standard charge, however, under the new scheme, some are to now be individually determined - under such circumstances, please contact the Building Control Office to obtain a quotation of charges.
