Under the Civil Law (Sale of Residential Property) Act 2003 building and pest inspectors are required to lodge certain details pertaining to pest and building inspections undertaken.

The Act states that within 7 days after the day the report is prepared, the following information will be given to the Territory for inclusion in a publicly available register:

• the fact that the report has been prepared;
• the street address of the property;
• the inspection date stated in the report;
• the name of the person who prepared the report; and,
• if the person who prepared the report did so as an employee or agent of another entity—the name and contact details of the other entity.

The Office of Regulatory Services is currently developing a new lodgement tool that will further improve the lodgement of that information. 

However, as an interim solution the following attachment provides a full listing of all inspections lodged over the past 12 months, including the details of the inspectors who have undertaken the inspections (including their contact details).

Interim Lodgement Arrangements for Inspectors:

Inspectors are requested to email the Office of Regulatory Services within 7 days after the report is prepared details of each inspection as identified above to:

fair.trading@act.gov.au or ors@act.gov.au

The Office of Regulatory Services will update the listing of inspections upon receipt of each email notification.
