Victorian Building Reports (VBRs) was launched in March 2024 and offers an invaluable research tool for practitioners as well as a means to keep abreast of the latest BABV decisions.
VBRs has consolidated all Building Appeals Board of Victoria decisions made since April 2018, when BABV decisions were first made available on Austlii.
All decisions have been categorised based on the nature of the appeal – whether it is under a section of the Building Act 1993, Building Regulations 2018 or Building Code of Australia. This will be an invaluable research tool when considering permit applications or preparing for Board cases.
In addition, regular bulletins are provided that identify noteworthy decisions made by the Board. This will ensure practitioners are kept updated of significant decisions.
An editorial committee has been formed with various building industry experts working in the private and public sectors.
