The BIS Department has announced a large set of red tape cutting measures coming into force on 6 April, to achieve an additional £21 million in overheads expenses for companies. Examples of changes include moving registration and payment online and introducing a UK-wide registration system for the first time. Deregulatory changes to building regulations are part of a wider package that will save business in total over £50 million per year, whilst ensuring buildings remain safe and sustainable. These reforms also include reducing administration on low-risk electrical works, and clearer, more consistent guidance on requirements for access to buildings, glazing and protection from falling. For more, go to official press release.
