Paragraph 17 Paragraph 41(2)(a)
The amendment set out in paragraph 42(2)(a) in respect of section 48(1)(a) of the Building Act 1984 extends the existing protection from enforcement action where an initial notice is in force. That protection is extended from the issue of a notice requiring the removal or alteration of offending work under section 36 of the Building Act 1984 to include the new compliance and stop notices described in new sections 35B and 35C, inserted by section 38. Protection against prosecution under section 35 remains as at present, in section 48(1)(b).
