Principal Designer role: impacts and insurance concerns for firms

The Building Safety Act 2022 (BSA)’s introduction of a new Principal Designer role has created concerns for design professionals around whether they could, or should, undertake the role themselves. These concerns have been exacerbated by uncertainties around the extent and requirements of the new role.
The BSA does not yet represent a finalised position, with secondary legislation and guidance having been issued only recently, or still being awaited. As such, affected firms, commentators and insurers have not yet received all of the detail of the changes. Nevertheless, firms looking to undertake the role should ensure they take the adequate steps to understand and comply with their potential obligations.The Building Safety Act 2022 (BSA)’s introduction of a new Principal Designer role has created concerns for design professionals around whether they could, or should, undertake the role themselves.
