2. which buildings are included and excluded in relation to the design and construction part of the new regime and the definitions of these buildings;
3. which buildings are excluded in relation to the occupation part of the new regime and the definitions of these buildings; and
4. the method for measuring height and number of storeys.
This consultation does not relate to buildings included in the leaseholder protection scheme or the building remediation funds.
