Part 3: Building Act 1984 Building control approvers and building inspectors Section 48: Insurance: Removal of requirements Effect
This section removes the requirement in the Building Act 1984 for Approved Inspectors to hold insurance through a Government-approved scheme. Instead, Approved Inspectors will be required to adequately cover their own liabilities, including through insurance if necessary.
	In section 42 of this Act, the Building Safety Regulator is also given powers to sanction any Approved Inspector who fails to meet standards set out by the professional conduct rules, which may include requirements on insurance.
