    Our neighbours directly above our unit have started to do renovations to their property – they have provided the secretary of the OC (we are self-managed) with a copy of an engineers certificate showing what internal walls are to be removed etc and what supports will be installed to maintain the structural integrity.  The secretary circulated a copy of the engineer's report to each owner asking if anyone had any concerns about the proposed renovations.   The renovations have now commenced – but I thought the OC had to give authorisation – what is liability if something goes wrong without such authorisation.   I understand the owner has insurance.  We only have the model by-laws but also there is a list of 'house rules'.  We are in NSW.
