    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.
