BUILDING ACT 2004 - SECT 19E

    (1)     This section applies if an eligible entity's appointment as certifier for building work on land (the first appointment ) ends under section 19D (1) (e).

    (2)     The owner of the land may appoint the entity as certifier for the building work (the second appointment ).

    (3)     If the certifier is an eligible entity during all of the relevant period, the second appointment is taken—

        (a)     to begin on the day after the day the first appointment ends; and

        (b)     to be a continuation of the first appointment, not a new appointment.

    (4)     However, for section 19D (1) (e), the second appointment is taken to be the last appointment if no appointment has been made after it.

    (5)     In this section:

"relevant period" means the period that—

        (a)     begins on the day after the day the first appointment ends; and

        (b)     ends on the day before the day the second appointment is made.
