CLC issues new Golden Thread Guidance

The Construction Leadership Council (CLC) is championing and supporting the delivery of safe and high-quality buildings for those who live and work in them.

The Building Safety workstream of the Construction Leadership Council have today (27 August 2024)  published guidance on the golden thread of information requirements for higher-risk buildings. This guidance will support dutyholders and accountable persons to deliver a golden thread for their building. 

The guidance sets out the golden thread information that dutyholders and accountable persons will need to generate, keep, maintain and handover during design, through construction, handover and completion of the building and into occupation.

The full Golden Thread Guidance is available here. A Summary of the guidance is also available, and can be downloaded here.

As the new regime develops, this guidance will almost certainly need to develop with it. The CLC would like to invite constructive feedback on this guidance to support this process.
