Our newly established Remediation Enforcement Unit aims to support building owners in fixing known buildings faster, while proactively driving the pace of remediation on all HRBs across England.

To unpack the unit’s role and help guide dutyholders through the regulatory landscape, we recently hosted a free in-depth webinar - An introduction to BSR’s Remediation Enforcement Unit.

Attendees also had the opportunity to put real-world scenarios to the panel in a question-and-answer session.
