      I recently visited my local OFT office to watch a strata matter. Neither party showed up so there i was in an empty room except for one of our local CTTT Members. We got talking to fill some of the two hours the Member now had to fill. The Member i refer to is highly qualified and a good quality Member as far as i know.

      During our talk Seiwa got mentioned and i found it interesting that the Member somewhat viewed Seiwa in the context of the situation of Seiwa and not as a general statement regarding s62 of the Act; the duty to maintain and repair. I read a lot on this forum about Seiwa being a universal statement that now compels OC's to be pro-active in their approach to all s62 requirements. To me the Seiwa statements regarding being pro-active about s62 seem to be applicable to strata living and not just the case in question.

      I now know not to expect that interpretation from everyone at CTTT.  This may mean that some people will have to go to the District or Supreme Court to have Seiwa enforced as a universal statement.
