RESOLVED:
1. That the impact of new and emerging legislation - most notably, the Fire Safety Act and the Building Safety Bill be noted.
2. That it be noted that the Building Safety Programme is underway, allowing the council to respond to the new and emerging legislation.
3. That the creation of a new assistant director role for building safety, at either grade 17 or grade 18, subject to evaluation be approved. This will allow for the necessary senior strategic leadership to take the programme forward, as set out in paragraph 90 of the report.
