Regulation 77A: Application and Interpretation

Regulation 77A.—(1) Regulation 77B applies only to building work that consists of— (a) the erection of a building; or (b) major renovation works. (2) Regulation 77B shall not apply to— (a) a building for which compliance with regulation 77B would unacceptably alter its character or appearance and which is— (i) a protected building; or (ii) a building being any monument for the time being subject to Part II of the Historic Monuments and Archaeological Objects (Northern Ireland) Order 1995; (b) a building situated in an isolated area where the prospect of high-speed connection is considered too remote to justify equipping the building with high-speed-ready in-building physical infrastructure or an access point; and (c) a building subject to major renovation works in which the cost of compliance with regulation 77B would be disproportionate to the benefit gained.
