One of the Building Safety Regulator’s three functions is to implement a more stringent regime for higher-risk buildings.
	The Building Safety Regulator will be responsible for all regulatory decisions under the new regime during the design, construction, occupation and refurbishment of higher-risk buildings in England.
	The Act gives the Secretary of State the power to amend the definition of a higher-risk building and the definition of building safety risks through affirmative regulations in light of research or on the basis of independent evidence and advice from the Building Safety Regulator.
