VBA seeks feedback on draft Code of Conduct for Building Surveyors
The draft Code is designed to enhance safety and quality in the building and construction industry by defining the expected standard of professional conduct that building surveyors must meet.
Once introduced, the Code will complement the existing legislative and regulatory framework for building surveyors and is another means through which the VBA can promote industry transparency.
Over time, the VBA anticipates the Code will restore trust and public confidence in building surveyors and their profession.
Public consultation
Public consultation on the draft Code of Conduct opened in February 2020 on the Engage Victoria website.
The VBA is seeking feedback from:
- building surveyors
- consumers
- councils
- building industry associations
- building practitioners; and
- other industry professionals.
The consultation period closed on 10 March 2020.
