In February 2019 the NSW Government released their response to the Shergold Weir Building Confidence Report. This was followed by the NSW Government’s Building Stronger Foundations Discussion Paper in June 2019. The public was invited to provide the NSW Government with their submissions in relation to this discussion paper. Kerin Benson Lawyers has now provided the NSW Government consultation with detailed submissions on what we believe to be the most critical areas of NSW Building & Construction law that are in urgent need of reform. In our submissions we address issues relating to risk management, building quality and the need for the introduction of Rectification Agreements as well as the benefits of adopting Decennial Liability and Decennial Liability Insurance in NSW.
