The building services Acts and plumbing regulations set out the obligations that registered service providers and licensed plumbing contractors must adhere to. Building and Energy has functions under the building service Acts that include auditing the work and conduct of registered and licenced building and plumbing service providers. Building and Energy has developed and implemented audit programs for all of the registered and licenced service providers. The audits are scheduled and conducted using a risk-based intelligence-led approach. It also conducts general inspections of buildings to assess how well the building service Acts are operating.
