Consulting other agencies on building regulation applications
This page is intended to help people looking for information about consulting other agencies.
When a building regulation application or notice is received we may consult the following, if necessary:
The Fire and Rescue Service
- For advice on means of escape on certain buildings
- Road and access for brigade vehicles
- Fire fighting facilities within and around buildings
- Goodwill advice on any relevant matters
Thames Water
This body is responsible for all Public Sewers in the district and is consulted whenever their drains are affected by proposed works.

Consulted when discharging from sewage treatment plants, ground water contamination may be an issue.
Other departments within the Council
- Highways and Streetcare for changes to design and the collection of refuse.
- Planning for design issues
- Environmental Health for food premises, discharge and siting of flues and contaminated land matters.
