New-build supermarkets, workplaces and buildings undergoing major renovations will also come under the new law.

As a UK resident, I can assure you that the market here is NOT free - it is, in fact, extremely expensive,
and the profit goes to corrupt politicians (all those in a position to steal it). Linux is free.
Self driving cars are probably safer than politicians driving cars, but we have laws against driving under the influence, so that is not the problem it might be.
