Planning and building regulations in Forth Valley
Here the Building (Scotland) Regulations and the domestic Technical Handbook set the standards, with a building warrant usually required for extension work.
Your council will confirm whether your lantern is permitted development under Scotland's rules, particularly for listed buildings.
Building regulations are checked by your local authority building standards (verifier) service. Some like-for-like replacement work does not need a building warrant but must still meet the building standards. Your council's building standards service can confirm.

Triple glazed roof lanterns in Forth Valley: questions
Can I have triple glazing with solar control?
Yes. Triple units usually include a solar-control or neutral coating.
Will triple glazing stop rain noise?
It reduces it noticeably. Laminated glass reduces it further.
Do I need triple glazing to meet building regulations?
Not usually. Well-specified double glazed lanterns generally meet the limiting values for rooflights. Triple glazing is an upgrade, not normally a requirement. Your building control body can confirm for your project.
Who checks building regulations for a lantern in Forth Valley?
Your local authority building standards (verifier) service. For a lantern in a new extension it forms part of the extension's approval; replacements in existing homes have their own rules.
