The Building Safety Regulator Committees
To assist in carrying out its functions, the Act provides the Building Safety Regulator with the power to establish and maintain committees to advise on building functions. The Act also provides the Building Safety Regulator with a duty to establish and maintain three specific committees. These are:
	Building Advisory Committee. Replacing the Building Regulations Advisory Committee for England (BRAC), this committee will give advice and information to the Building Safety Regulator about matters connected with most of its building functions.
	Committee on industry competence. This is concerned with the competence of those in the built environment industry. The committee will advise both the Building Safety Regulator and those in the built environment industry about industry competence, and provide oversight of industry’s work to improve competence.
	Residents’ panel. This committee will consist of higher-risk building residents and other relevant persons (if any) that the Building Safety Regulator considers appropriate. The Building Safety Regulator will consult this committee on certain matters which it is expected would be of particular interest and importance for residents of higher-risk buildings.
