What are the current shortcomings of Building Act 2055?

The current Building Act 2055, although an important legislation governing the construction industry, has several shortcomings that need to be addressed. Firstly, the act lacks clarity and specificity in certain areas, which leads to confusion and interpretation issues among stakeholders. Secondly, there is a lack of adequate provisions for monitoring and ensuring compliance with building standards, resulting in substandard construction practices. Additionally, the act does not emphasize enough on sustainable and energy-efficient building requirements, missing an opportunity to promote greener and more environmentally friendly construction practices. Furthermore, the act does not sufficiently address the challenges posed by rapidly evolving technologies and innovations in the construction industry. Overall, these shortcomings highlight the need for a comprehensive review and revision of the Building Act 2055 to ensure better clarity, enforceability, and adaptability in the regulation of the construction sector.
