Access to the golden thread information is about giving residents visibility into the building’s safety and performance data. The principal accountable person is the designated lead for safety on a high-risk building and must ensure that this information is available to residents. This person acts as the central point of contact for requesting and receiving up-to-date, verified safety information throughout the building’s life cycle, from handover through operation and beyond. So residents can access the golden thread information through the principal accountable person, which supports understanding safety features, fire safety arrangements, maintenance history, and any actions needed to keep the building safe. It wouldn’t be appropriate to say access is restricted to permits or only after completion, and denying access would undermine safety governance and transparency.
