440: Transitional provision for applications for approval as building certifier under former Act
or “This law explains how to handle old requests to become a building checker when the rules change.”
You could also call this:

“Rules for extending building certifier approvals under the old law before they end in May 2006”

You can ask to continue or renew your approval as a building certifier under the old law until 31 May 2006. The chief executive can approve these requests until that date. If your approval is continued or renewed, it will end on 31 May 2006.

This rule is about what happens to building certifier approvals that were given under the old law. It gives you a little more time to keep your approval, but only until a specific date.
