How do building control communicate to industry their changes of interpretation of building regs

In many areas the building regs are light on detail. If over time building control changes how it interprets the building regs how do they communicate this to the industry?

It is up to the professionals in the industry to ensure they are up to date with all the reg's as they change.

Thanks. My question is more focused on interpretation changing where the regulations have not changed.

Representative bodies such as RIAI, Engineers Ireland, CIF, Homebond, etc would normally circulate their members with updated changes and interpretation of same.

It’s still up to the professional to argue their point.

building control cannot, on a whim change their interpretation without a clarification from the department or the industry itself.

what is your exact query?
