MINISTER FOR URBAN SERVICES

LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY QUESTION

QUESTION No 430

Builders Qualifications and Licences

Mr Westende - asked the Minister for Urban Services:

(1) What progress is being made to permit mutual recognition of builders qualifications and licences with other States, particularly with New South Wales.

Mr Connolly - the answer to the Members question is as follows:

(1) ACT Building Control administers the builders licensing provisions of the ACT Building Act and has prepared a Builders Licensing Application Form to process applications under the Mutual Recognition Act.

Senior State and Territory builders licensing representatives met in Melbourne on 23 November 1992 and agreed to prepare a common application form. This form will be used by licensed builders when applying for registration in another State or Territory under the Mutual Recognition Act.

The draft form prepared by ACT Building Control will be used as a model for the National form and its use will commence in the ACT in March 1993.
