Section 12 enables the Secretary of State to amend the provisions creating the three statutory committees (the Building Advisory Committee, the committee on industry competence and the residents’ panel), and to make consequential changes to the Act itself, by regulations subject to the affirmative procedure. Regulations to repeal a committee are only able to be brought forward by Ministers following a proposal by the Building Safety Regulator to the Secretary of State.
