I did not carry on with my objections because my view is irrelevant when there are 5 lots in all and 4 are on the EC. Guess who was not asked to join the EC?You say that you would complain and seek an order to stop the works. My question is: how would Fair Trading or NCAT consider the matter if 4 out of 5 owners agree to the payment, even if it’s not in the Act.
That is exactly what NCAT is for – to stand up for the law and individuals who are being unfairly treated by those who ignore it to their own advantage. It doesn’t matter if it’s 4 to 1, or 400 to 1, if they are in the wrong and you are in the right then NCAT should find in your favour.
ScotlandX has given excellent advice. But if you really just wanted to vent your frustration but not actually do anything, that’s your prerogative
