Is this right? Thanks.

R researcher1 Guest 26 Feb 2009 #3 hi. there has also been a change to part L regarding airtight construction, and there will be ammendments to Part F re ventilation coming soon. it does depend on when you received your planning permission and how soon you will be building, I think.
