This Circular letter draws attention to the Building (Repeal of Provisions of Local Acts) Regulations 2003 (SI 2003/3030) which were made on 24 November 2003 and which come into force on 1 March 2004.

The purpose and effect of the Regulations are:

Statutory Instrument (SI 2003/3030) follows on from two consultation documents issued by the former Department of the Environment, Transport and the Regions(DETR) and the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister(ODPM), in July 2000 and in July 2002 respectively. The earlier of these consultation documents related mainly to proposals for amendment of Part H, Drainage and Waste Disposal, in Schedule 1 to the Building Regulations 2000. A revised Part H was subsequently introduced into the Building Regulations 2000 by the Building (Amendment) Regulations 2001 (SI 2001/3335).
The July 2002 document, Proposals for Repealing Some Provisions of Local Acts Regarding Drainage, referred back to proposals included in the earlier consultation document for repeal of provisions in four local Acts that enable the local authority to reject plans of building work deposited under the Building Act 1984 if they do not show separate drains for foul and surface water. The July 2002 document noted that responses to the earlier document had drawn attention to similar provisions in two other local Acts, and that the ODPM had therefore decided to consult afresh on proposals for repeal of the relevant provisions in all six local Acts.
