      A previous owner of a top floor unit made changes by installing down lights.  The changes were not authorised, but the then current EC would have been aware work was being carried out.  To meet the requirements of a Fire Order work was required to make these down lights compliant.

       

      Who is liable for these compliance costs?  The current owner, who bought in good faith or the OC, because the EC was lax in following up on alterations being carried out?
