| HSE is seeking the views of a wide range of stakeholders about the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) (Amendment) Regulations (2018). This is your chance to make a valuable and positive contribution to the ongoing regulation of gas. Your input is vital and will be invaluable to HSE. If you are a landlord or CNG filling station operator and the amendments are relevant to you or your business, please complete the relevant survey below if you can. The review will seek to establish whether the regulations continue to meet their objectives, remain appropriate, provide clarity for business, and facilitate flexibility while maintaining gas safety. Information from the survey is being collected for internal HSE use only and will not be provided to third parties. It will be stored securely and deleted upon publication of the final report. All individual responses to the survey will be aggregated together and treated anonymously. None of the information you provide will be used for regulatory inspection purposes. In most cases the survey will take about 10 minutes to complete. The surveys close on Tuesday 21 June.
