Have your say on the proposed reforms to the registration of builders (and related occupations).

Building and Energy has released a consultation paper proposing changes to the Building Services legislation.

The consultation paper will be discussed at this session and seeks comment on:

• a proposed shift from a single class (tier) of builder registration in WA to three tiers and how these reforms could best be implemented in WA.
• registration of project managers responsible for coordinating and planning commercial buildings in WA, and owners' representatives of commercial buildings.
• mandatory continuing professional development requirements for registered builders and building surveyors.
• proposals to strengthen disciplinary and enforcement powers under the BSR Act.
• the extension of mandatory builder registration to currently exempt areas of remote and regional WA.
