News Release 2003/0133:
15 July 2003


Big Wallop quoted:

6. Electrical accident rates in houses have risen and compare with those

for
carbon monoxide poising, gas explosions and collisions with glass - all of
which are covered by the Regulations.

Are collisions with glass enforced by the building regulations in the same
way as proposed for the electrical regulations? If you break a pane of
ordinary low level glass (which might date from the 1940's), presumably you
need to replace it with safety glass - but would you need to involve
building control or an approved installer? (I am talking about replacing a
pane of glass, not replacing the window which of course would require
building control or a fensa installer).
