Advice on a Dispute Resolution Process

The Consortia Technical Working Group is a customer focused group with a remit to investigate complaints with regard to interpretation of compliance issues within the industry arising from the Building Standards Regulatory process wherever they occur. 

If you disagree with the technical or procedural interpretation that the Building Standards Authority is adopting in the consideration of a building warrant or building project proposal that you have submitted or will require to submit you may request an interpretation through Local Authority Building Standards Scotland (LABSS).

OR

If you disagree with an interpretation that the Building Standards Local Authority is adopting in

  • the consideration of a building warrant, or
  • a building project proposal that you have submitted, or
  • will require to submit on an alternative design approach which varies from the Technical Handbooks you may request an interpretation through Local Authority Building Standards Scotland (LABSS).

 

This initial request must be submitted to your local Building Standards Local Authority who are considering your proposal, preferably by email. They will then consult with the Consortia Technical Working Group before determining the final position.
