Annex A - Annual Data
1 Building Warrant Applications
The number of building warrant applications (including amendments to warrant) issued by verifiers in Scotland over the past three years is shown in Chart A. The number of building warrants (and amendments) issued in Scotland decreased by 3% from 2021-22 to 2022-23.
2 Completion Certificates
The number of completion certificates accepted is shown in Chart B and remained steady from 2021-22 to 2022-23.
3 Value of Works
The Building Standards services across Scotland administer and verify construction projects with an average value of works of £7.8 billion annually. The value of works in Scotland increased by 35% during 2022-23 as shown in Chart C. This appears to be due to the rising costs of materials and labour across the construction sector.
Note: Building warrant fees have risen by 16% as they are based on the value of works (see KPO5).
