The fire risk appraisal and assessment of external wall construction and cladding of existing blocks of flats – Code of practice (PAS 9980) has been issued as a Draft for Public Comment (DPC).

The public consultation will last for a month and will close on Thursday 20 May 2021.

registration and CIC response

If there is a new user, they will need to register before logging in for the first time. Registration is free and only takes a couple of minutes. Where possible, comments should be submitted by one person from the organization to ensure that no conflicting comments are submitted by members of the same organization and to avoid repetition.

Normally, CIC does not respond to BS or PAS consultations, leaving this to individual members’ technical expertise but if any member/s feels that a CIC response is important please let Graham Watts know as soon as possible.
