(b). Statutory fees incurred by the RBS over and above the sum nominated in Clause 2(d) relating to property information and the like will he charged at cost.

2. PAYMENT
The fee specified in Clause 2 is payable prior to consideration of the building permit application. Schedule 2 of the Act requires an application for a building permit to be accompanied by the fee determined by the council in accordance with the Local Government Act or as determined by the relevant private building surveyor.

3. CLIENT AUTHORITY
The Client warrants that the Client is the owner of the land at the project address referred to or that the Client is the duly authorised agent of the said owner. If required by the RBS the Client will produce written authority of the owner of the land to authorise the client to act on behalf of the owner.

4. NO DUAL APPOINTMENTS
It is an offence pursuant to Section 78 of the Act to appoint a person as an RBS if another building surveyor has already been appointed or otherwise authorised for the project. The client therefore warrants that no other building surveyor has been appointed (or has otherwise commenced duties) in relation to the project referred to in this agreement.

5. PLANNING PERMITS
The Client shall be responsible for obtaining (and the cost of) any planning permits and shall provide a copy of the planning permit and approved planning permit drawings to the RBS. The RBS shall not be required to issue a building permit after being appointed until any required planning permit and approved planning permit drawings are received by the RBS.

6. ENTIRE AGREEMENT AND NO REPRESENTATIONS
These terms and conditions constitute the entire agreement between the RBS and the Client and no reliance may be placed by the Client upon any oral discussions or representations made prior to or at the time of signing this agreement. The Client will make no claim or demand in relation to any such representations either at common law or alleged breach of the Trade Practices Act 1974 (Commonwealth) or the Fair Trading Act 1985 (Vic). The RBS is not an estimator or quantity surveyor and is not engaged by the Client to provide costing or estimating services.

7. ADDITIONAL SERVICES
Where the Client requests additional services from the RBS, that are not included in the scope of mandatory services described in Clauses 1 & 4 of this agreement the RBS, shall not be obliged to proceed with such additional work until a request is received from the Client and agreed to by the RBS. In the event that additional inspections or other work is required by;
(a). The Client
(b). The scope of the mandatory services specified in Clause 1 of this agreement and/or
(c). Act or Regulations require the RBS to proceed with such further work complete the obligations and functions of the RBS, the RBS shall he entitled to deliver an account to the Client for such additional work. The amount of such fees shall be calculated in accordance with Clauses 2, 3 & 4 of this agreement and payment shall be duly made with in fourteen (14) days of invoice.

8. CLIENT TO NOTIFY RELEVANT BUILDING SURVEYOR OF OTHER BUILDING PRACTITIONERS
The Client must give written notice to the RBS of each building practitioner engaged by the Client for the building work referred to in this agreement, including details of any building practitioner certificate issued to the building practitioner under Part 11 of the Act. Such notice must be given either upon the appointment of the RBS where the Client has already engaged a building practitioner/s or within fourteen (14) days of the client engaging the building practitioner/s where the building practitioner/s is/are engaged after the appointment of the Relevant Building Surveyor.

9. TERMINATION OF APPOINTMENT
The appointment of the RBS may be terminated by the Client only with the written consent of the Building Control Commission. On such termination the RBS shall be entitled to be paid all fees and disbursements incurred to the date of termination. In the event that the building work nominated in this agreement is terminated before commencement or completion, the Client must notify the Building Control Commission by written notice. When this written notice is issued the appointment of the RBS shall be deemed to be terminated. The Client must thereupon pay all fees and disbursements incurred to the date of termination and the RBS shall be entitled to deliver an account for the same. Furthermore the Client must not engage another RBS to complete the functions of the RBS specified in this agreement in respect of the building work without the written consent of the Building Control Commission.

10. THE BUILDING PERMIT & THE RBS
The building permit issued will be an assessment of the drawings for compliance with the Building Act and Regulations and not the serviceability, quality or functionality of the work approved by the permit. This appointment of an RBS is limited to ensuring the work carried out complies to the Act and Regulations that are applicable at this time. The RBS is responsible for the carrying out of inspections that will be listed on the Building Permit. The client is responsible to ensure that the RBS is given adequate notification for inspection and shall ensure that works do not continue beyond the notification stage until the inspection is approved.

11. PURPOSE OF INSPECTION
Inspections carried out will be the minimum required to ensure compliance with the Act and Regulations and not supervision of all the work. It is the responsibility of the builder to construct the building fully in accordance with the approved permit documents. Variations must be approved by the RBS prior to construction and those variations that require further document survey and assessment and/or approval will incur an additional fee – refer Clause 4.

12. BUILDING NOTICES & ORDERS
Building Notices and Orders are formal documents prescribed in the Regulations when breaches and non compliances are identified for the purpose of securing compliance with the permit documents and other relevant provisions of the Regulations. Notices and Orders are required to be served as a matter of course for significant areas of non compliance or where safety is or may be compromised. In the case of routine rectification works an inspection report or letter will normally be sent to the owner and/or builder as applicable and in the event of non response within an appropriate time ( 7, 14 or 30 days ) a Building Notice will be served and further fees will be payable as per Clause 2.
