RICS is delighted to have Gary Rake, Chief Executive Officer of the Australian Building and Construction Board, join us to give an overview of the work that the Board is doing and the future direction of the National Construction Code.
The webinar will cover NCC22, what’s on the horizon for NCC25 and beyond.
Key future areas of focus for the NCC include how the Board, which is the standards writing body responsible for the National Construction Code, WaterMark and Code Mark Certification Schemes, should deal with Australia’s changing demographics and aging population including through the types and mixes of homes.
Join us for what will be a fascinating and informative discussion.
