The Association of Building Engineers confirms its position in the support and delivery of the Home Information Packs, the inclusion of the energy performance certificates and the provision of the Home Condition Reports.
The Association is working closely with the CLG and AHIPP in the development and delivery of HIP’s. The feedback from participants received has shown a far greater recognition and appreciation of the benefits provided by the current proposals.
We are disappointed by the perceived negative actions and stance being taken at this point in time by both individuals and organisations.
The provision of support to participants within the housing process is essential. The HIP proposals will provide greater clarity at the earliest possible stage and must be effectively supported
If the efforts being taken to negate the proposals had been applied to promote them the systems for delivery would be in place now.
Be positive and make HIP’s happen.
Notes to editor
The Association of Building Engineers is the professional body for those specialising in the technology of building. Founded in 1925 under the name the Incorporated Association of Architects and Surveyors the ABE provides the prime qualifications of Building Engineer, a title that exactly reflects the professional expertise of members and one that is readily understood in the European Union and beyond.
