Assuming a successful outcome, the Part L2 (2006) compliance process is now complete in relation to those aspects that can be tested before construction. The reports generated, together with appropriate supporting evidence, can now be submitted to Building Control.
The content of Part L submissions should be agreed in advance with the local Building Control officer as there may be differing interpretations during the early stages of implementation of the new regulations. These are likely to be resolved over time as a sufficient number of Competent Persons are trained and accredited. It may be necessary, for instance, to agree how compliance with Criterion 4 will be met post construction as part of the pre-Construction report.
