The Building Safety Regulator (BSR) has published new data on Gateway Two applications up to 1 October 2025, reflecting its new model for processing applications. The BSR highlights that an ‘all-time high’ 209 decisions were made during August, with 152 new build applications and 253 remediation applications currently in progress.
The new Innovation Unit, which has been established to speed up the processing of applications, is managing 27 of the 152 live new build applications, with the majority of these meeting the 12-week service level agreement. The BSR has confirmed that its focus for the remainder of this year is resolving the 91 historic new build applications and that all but three of these are expected to reach a decision by 31 December.
