Building regulations - proposed review of fire safety topics: analysis of responses
This analysis of the responses to the consultation questions will help inform the Scottish Government decisions on policy direction in response to the Cameron House Hotel recommendations and other aspects of Scottish Building Standards and fire safety regulation and guidance.
Footnotes
1The two Building Standards Technical Handbooks – one for domestic, and one for non-domestic, buildings - set out how to achieve building regulations in practice.
2 A further response from an individual was removed from the analysis as their response was not within the scope of the consultation.
3 ‘Bow-tie barriers’ are control measures within a Bow-tie diagram, a risk management tool that aims to prevent a hazard from escalating into a negative consequence.
4 SCEs are the equipment and systems that provide the basis of risk management associated with Major Accident Hazards.
