As part of its on-going building safety programme, the Scottish Government has provided advice and guidance on action required for certain types of building.

Its guidance is for you if you are responsible for the maintenance of a building with external insulation finished with render or brick -slips, particularly, but not exclusively, those with a storey at a height of more than 18 metres above the ground or in an exposed location.

In order to fully assess Scotland's housing stock, and to identify actions being undertaken by building owners in the event  that any  buildings may have inadequate design or poor installation of EWI systems, the Scottish Government would be grateful if you would complete and return the pro-forma schedule, to BFSResponse@gov.scot<mailto:BFSResponse@gov.scot> as soon as possible, so that any  issues can be logged.
