› Flat Chat Strata Forum › NCAT – the NSW Tribunal › Section 250 – Penalty notices; are they just more window dressing? › Current Page
I have been in a running exchange with FT over ss 249 and 250.
What is common to all Ft’s responses is that they will not mention either of these sections in any reply even though I have made it abundantly clear I want an OC fined under the authority the Commish of FT has in these sections.
FT acknowledge there is a breach of s 160, i.e. the OC has no building insurance.
FT rang the agent and he told them that was the situation.
On top of that no one seems to know if anyone has ever been appointed as an authorised officer (s 250) OR if any OC has ever received a penalty notice (s 250).
Given FT’s refusal to engage on these section I will have my local Member make some inquiries as FT will be less inclined to fob off a sitting Member of Parliament than they are some punter from a SP.
My assessment of ss 249 and 250 at this point in time is that they are, without question, meaningless window dressing.
Gotta love the Strata Schemes Management Act 2015.
