  Speaker 1: small dwellings without consent. New laws will allow you to
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: build something up to sixty square meet as they were
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: calling it a granny flat yesterday. The final policy expected

  Speaker 1: to be in placed by the middle of next year.

  Speaker 1: us on this. Malcolm, very good morning to you.
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: Good mine, am Ike Guarante speaking.
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: Does it make sense.
• 0:20
  Speaker 2: Boarding speaking, We're welcome and proposed to fast track residential
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: building projects by not being allowed required to stand a
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: loan fillings through up to sixty squaremens. They have a
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: resource of buildings consent as decision intro allow people to
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: get on and build small projects. Something we're here from
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: our members that homeowner is a keen.
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: To do exactly.
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: So the thud parts of the resource consent and building
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: consent as I represent builders up just quickly chat about
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: the building consent aspects and the proposal as I was
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: presented yesterday came in afternoon, so we haven't had a
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: good opportunity to look at the detail. Will require the
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: proposed design to build to meet the building code, and
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: that's got it. That is a good thing. Though there
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: was no checking to ensure that the design, the construction
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: themselves adheres to the Burden Code. And that's not such
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: a good thing.
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: Yeah, this is right now, this is what worries making.
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: So you're going to hire a good builder. They'll do
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: a good job, no problem at all. What are the
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: downstream effects is if the person who thought they buhired
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: a good builder didn't they sell the house. I've got
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: a grandy flat that turns out to be a dunger
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: because the guy was an idiot. What happens then?
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah, what the proposal looks like one, it's imperative that
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: if people who choose to go down this track, and
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: I'm presuming it's going to be an option for people
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: to undertake a builder will build with a building consent
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: or not with the building content. For those who do,
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: it's imperative that they use a trade qualified builder and
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: nd CBS twenty three hundred trade quied building businesses in
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: the country. There's what it also boils down to, Mike,
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: is whether a homeowner wishes to save the cost of
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: a building consent, which NB is indicating their documents sits
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: between two and three thousand, two thousand and five thousand
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: dollar range or three hundred and fifty k build. We're
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: also removing the ongoing safeguard of having the council sheer
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: response by when you build the phase horizon in the
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: future and somehow as may see there as a Bible
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: tray of others may not.
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: It'll be interesting to see. Of course, they're out for
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: feedback and all that sort of thing, so we'll see
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: what happens and see what changes they make. I will
