new or refurbished general needs housing, whether in the form of flats
or individual houses. It covers car parking (both on-plot and
communal), access routes to dwellings, and entrances and circulation
routes, including lifts. It also includes recommendations on electrical,
sanitary, heating and ventilation services, windows, doors and related
hardware, and the provision of key rooms and spaces, particularly WC,
bathroom, kitchen and storage facilities.
