EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

The Building Act 2004 is an Act to regulate buildings and building work, and for other purposes.

Section 150 of the Act provides the Minister with the power to determine fees.  

The purpose of this determination is to revoke Disallowable Instrument DI 2008 - 160 that set fees for the 2008-09 financial year and to determine fees for the 2009-10 financial year.

The fees determined for the 2009-10 financial year represent the 2008-09 financial year fees increased in accordance with Treasury’s inflation factor of 3.5%.  Appropriate rounding has occurred in relation to the increases.

A new fee for service has been set for the registration of detailed plans to already registered building plans.

The fees take effect on 1 July 2009.

The determination under section 150 of the Act is a disallowable instrument.
