Details | Difficulty | ● Inspections were conducted at various stages of construction (before construction, different plinth levels, on completion) by the Tehsil Municipal Administration, Urban Area Development Authorities, or Building Control Authorities.
● This inspection regime was burdensome for small and medium businesses. |
Analysis | ● It was deliberated that for low risk (Category-1) buildings (low cost single floor or two story buildings having an area less than 1000 sq ft) the number of inspections needed to be reduced. | |
Solution |
● For low risk buildings the requirement for multiple inspections has been eliminated. Now, only two inspections will be held. | |
