Part 5: Other provisions about safety standards, etc. Construction products Section 146: Construction products Proposed use of this power
The power will be used to set out a detailed regime in regulations. The detail of the extent of the power is set out in Schedule 11.
	This power will be used by the Secretary of State to create regulations for the marketing and supply of construction products in the United Kingdom. The new regulations will work in three ways:
they will create a new requirement for construction products to meet a general safety requirement;
they will retain existing requirements for products which perform to a designated standard or products which conform to a technical assessment, adding some further requirements to enhance the existing market surveillance and enforcement regime, and provide for regulation of false statements made in advertising and marketing material; and
they will create new requirements for a list of safety critical products (where the failure of such products would result in death or serious injury).
