These paragraphs do one of two things in recognition that functions previously performed by local authorities may now also be performed by the Building Safety Regulator:
They change references in the Building Act 1984 from "local authority" to "building control authority" to recognise that functions previously undertaken by local authorities may now be undertaken by the Building Safety Regulator and that the term "building control authority" covers both, as set out in new section 121A of the Building Act 1984, inserted by section 32; or
They insert references to the Building Safety Regulator alongside local authorities where the relevant provision includes or relates to the wider roles of local authorities and the Building Safety Regulator under the Act rather than the narrower role of building control authority.
