The Local Authority Building Control (LABC) has responded to the Grenfell Inquiry’s final report published yesterday (4 September).

Local authorities may stop performing building control responsibilities after the 6th of April due to a lack of registered professionals, LABC’s chief executive has warned.

Just over 1,500 building control surveyors have begun the process of registering with the Building Safety Regulator (BSR) as of 31 January, according to official figures.
