The Home Owners Building Guide - Building certification

Congrats QBCC - A great series for renovators!

Building Certification review

In 2011, the state government responded to concerns expressed by Certifiers and others that the system wasn’t working as well as it could. They released a discussion paper to review private building certification. Progress stalled due to a change in Government. It seems we are back on track.

Have your say on the review of the Building Act and building certification Read the discussion paper & get involved!

 

Let’s hope the review achieves real changes and assists certifiers to ensure we can adequately perform our functions.
