<p>The Building Safety Fund height eligibility should be measured as 18m or above
using the approach set out in Annex A of the prospectus. The measurement should be
taken from the lowest ground level to the finished floor level of the top occupied
storey. This is consistent with the guidance to the buildings regulations with regards
to fire safety and the height threshold used for the combustible materials ban, the
basis of the height eligibility criteria for this fund.</p><p>For the purposes of
the fund, we are allowing a tolerance of 30cm to this measurement so any building
with appropriate evidence that their building measures 17.7m or above will be eligible
to proceed to application stage.</p>
