Building safety responsibility in Sierra Leone is currently unclear. Previously, oversight was the responsibility of the Ministry of Works, Housing and Infrastructure development, but due to government reorganization this entity does not have a website, and no building codes are available online. The Sierra Leone Bureau of Standards would likely be able to provide some insight, however there is no active website for this entity at this time. Possible (unconfirmed) contact information for the SLBC is as follows:

Wahman Abu Compound, Kelsey Road
Kissy – Ferry Junction
CT Box 11
Freetown
Sierra Leone

Tel: +232 78 334134
