Summary:
The Respondent failed to provide a record of work on completion of restricted building work. He is fined $1,500 and ordered to pay costs of $1,000. The matter will be recorded in the Register of Licensed Building Practitioners for a period of three years.
The Respondent has not carried out building work in a negligent or incompetent manner nor in a manner that was contrary to a building consent. Whilst his work was substandard, it was not, on the basis of court decision on the disciplinary threshold for complaints to be upheld, sufficiently serious enough to warrant a disciplinary outcome.
