Close of New Construction 2014: Bespoke deadline - KBCN1020

As confirmed in the January 2018 Process Note, the New Construction 2014 version will close for registrations on 23rd March. However, for bespoke assessments against this version, the deadline applies to the submission of the bespoke application form and plans. These must be received by BREEAM on or before the 23rd March. The bespoke criteria development process will then continue, and the NC 2014 bespoke criteria will be issued as normal. The assessor will be able to register New Construction 2014 bespoke assessments after 23rd March, as long as the application was submitted before this date.
