In brief
Section 156 of the Building Safety Act 2022 amended the Fire Safety Order. In broad terms, Responsible Persons must record their fire risk assessment in full, record the identity of the person or organisation who carried it out, and share relevant information with other Responsible Persons and residents where applicable.
Why it matters
Recording who carried out your assessment makes competence a visible, evidenced choice. This is why certified providers matter.
Residential and non-residential
Some requirements apply differently to residential buildings and to premises with multiple Responsible Persons. Seek advice for your specific building.
Legal review required: confirm commencement dates, applicability and wording before publishing.
