Big changes ahead for Building Safety! The Building Safety Regulator (BSR) will become a standalone public body from January 2026, separating from the HSE to strengthen accountability and focus.
This marks an important step towards a single construction regulator, following the Grenfell Tower Inquiry recommendations. While the transition will take time, these reforms aim to improve safety and oversight in the construction industry.
Professionals in the built environment should evaluate their compliance efforts, establish clear roles and duties, and take proactive steps to adapt to the new regulatory landscape.
