Approval of this procurement strategy is
required to enable the continuation of a programme to replace
insulated panels forming part of the external walls of buildings,
either fixed to masonry or incorporated into window frames. The
intent of such panels is to provide thermal insulation and
aesthetics but in some cases, whilst units will have been compliant
with Building Regulations at the time of installation, the fire
safety of these panels cannot be guaranteed. In such cases the
replacement with A1-rated units is the appropriate course of
action.
