The Official Receiver has been appointed liquidator following winding-up orders made on 6 November.<\/p>\n
Under the Building Act, all three private inspectors have now cancelled every live project. Clients have seven days to find a new registered building control approver or face automatic reversion to the local council.<\/p>\n
For non-higher-risk schemes, construction can continue but a new registered building control approver must be appointed immediately.<\/p>\n
If a replacement initial notice is not lodged within seven days of receiving a cancellation notice, oversight transfers automatically to the local authority.<\/p>\n
All higher-risk building (HRB) projects \u2013 typically residential towers and complex mixed-use schemes \u2013 now revert to the Building Safety Regulator.<\/p>\n
Work must stop until the BSR confirms a valid new application has been accepted. Developers must reapply for building control approval using the BSR\u2019s online system, marking the submission \u201cformerly Assent\/LB\/Oculus\u201d.<\/p>\n
Any partial final certificates already issued remain valid.<\/p>\n
Developers have also been told to download project data from Assent\u2019s system using links supplied by email and share this information with whichever new body takes over supervision.<\/p>\n
