New Cladding Laws for QLD.

by John McGirr | Sep 24, 2018 | Uncategorized

In June 2017, in response to the Lacrosse building fire in Melbourne and similar incidents abroad, the Queensland Government established the Non-Conforming Building Products Audit Taskforce to minimise and manage the risk of combustible cladding used in the construction of high-risk buildings.

The Taskforce audited all publicly-owed buildings and is currently assessing the 71 buildings on which combustible cladding was found to have been used. The Taskforce also identified the need to audit approximately 12,000 privately-owned buildings, and suggested that the private owners are best placed to complete the first phase of the audit.

To this end, the Queensland Government recently passed the Building and Other Legislation (Cladding) Amendment Regulation 2018 (Qld), which imposes a series of obligations on owners of buildings.
