In the eighth The Construction Briefing podcast, Michelle Rousell and Yassir Mahmood of Practical Law Construction discuss a number of developments referred to in February's monthly bulletin.

These include the latest building safety developments, with the Building Safety Bill moving on to its committee stage (after passing its second reading in the House of Lords), a House of Lords Library's research briefing on the Building Safety Bill and the government's wide-ranging amendments to limit leaseholder liability, allow the government to block developers and construction product manufacturers from operating in the market, imposing financial liability on construction product manufacturers and widening the scope of the building safety levy.

We also look at the judgments in Power and another v Shah [2022] EWHC 209 (QB), which considers party wall issues, and Prime London Holdings 11 Ltd v Thurloe Lodge Ltd [2022] EWHC 303 (Ch), where the High Court made an access order under the Access to Neighbouring Land Act 1992 (ANLA 1992).
