The Building (Scotland) Amendment Regulations 1997
These Regulations make further amendments to the Building Standards (Scotland) Regulations 1990 (the “1990 Regulations”) and the Building (Procedure) (Scotland) Regulations 1981. The amendments take account of the evolution of building practices in the areas of fire prevention and building ventilation, and give effect to some provisions of Directive 93/76/EEC (to limit carbon dioxide emissions by improving energy efficiency).
