Print

If you want to make a change to your building consented work, talk to your council about whether it requires a formal amendment.

This guide sets out our expectations around notifying proposed variations to building consents, assessing those variations and making amendments to building consents. It was written just prior to the 2009 amendment to the Building Act and is due to be rewritten. It should be used in conjunction with the minor variations guidance written in 2010.

Published on 1 September 2008
Of interest to Building consent authorities, Licensed building practitioners, Designers,
ISBN: 978-0-478-32724-3 (Print) / 978-0-478-32723-6 (Online)
