<p>In the Government’s Clean Air Strategy 2019, we committed to consulting on changes
to standards in Part F (ventilation) of the Building Regulations, as part of our 2019
consultation on the Building Regulations’ energy efficiency standards. The statutory
guidance for Part F (Approved Document F) describes how buildings in urban areas should
be designed to reduce the intake of pollutants. In this review we are using the latest
evidence on indoor air quality to inform ventilation standards.</p><p>The Future Homes
Standard will be implemented through an uplift to the Building Regulations, subject
to consultation. We will expand on the technical detail of these proposals during
the 2019 consultation.</p>
