Minor Corrections Made to Approved Documents L and F for England

The Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government has issued a circular announcing revisions to Approved Documents L (Energy and greenhouse gas emissions) and F (Ventilation). The amendments are intended to correct minor errors in the 2026 editions of these documents and apply to England.

According to the correspondence published on 8 September 2026, the circular and accompanying letter detail the specific areas where changes have been made to Approved Documents L and F. The purpose of these revisions is to address minor errors identified in the documents.

Letting agents and inventory clerks in England should be aware of these updates, as Approved Documents L and F provide guidance on energy efficiency, greenhouse gas emissions, and ventilation standards for properties. The corrections may affect compliance checks and property assessments.

The full details of the amendments are available in the published circular and letter from the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government.
