The Deregulation (Building) (Initial Notices and Final Certificates) Order 1996
Part II of the Building Act 1984 (“The 1984 Act”) makes provision for private sector building control through Approved Inspectors. Part II provides for the giving of initial notices by an Approved Inspector which if accepted by the relevant local authority removes the work to which the notice relates from supervision by the authority. Such a notice may be cancelled or withdrawn but may not be amended.
