      It is generally accepted that it is the responsibility of the Owners Corporation (OC) for repairs required to the tiles and/or waterproofing of balconies.  

      In Victoria, VCAT has ruled that for units where the boundary definition is interior face, the owner of the unit and not the OC is responsible for these repairs (2011 the Subdivision (Registrar’s Requirements) Regulations 2011 10(4)(a).    

      In Victoria retrospectivity (prior to the Act being passed in 2011) also applies (Owners Corporation PS508732B v Fisher [2014] VCAT 1358).

      Has NCAT, which determines rules in NSW, ruled similarly, or is the OC still responsible for the repairs in NSW?
