About the Building Practitioners Board The Building Practitioners Board (the Board) plays an important role in overseeing the Licensed Building Practitioners Scheme. The Board’s functions are to:

- Approve rules for recommendation to the Minister relating to LBPs that are prepared in accordance with Part 4 of the Act.
- Hear and decide complaints about, and inquire into the conduct of and discipline, LBPs in accordance with the Act.
- Hear appeals against certain decisions by the Registrar of the Board.
- Review and report to the Minister on the performance of the functions and duties, and the exercise of the powers, of the Board in accordance with the Act. The Board is not a governance board in the same way a Crown entity board provides strategic oversight for a Crown entity, instead it acts more like a tribunal. The Board is independent of MBIE but is supported in the performance of its role and functions.

**Role one**:

- A Registered Architect with residential design experience, a Licensed Building Practitioner holding a current Design Licence, or a building surveyor with residential building experience. Role two:

- A Licensed Building Practitioner holding a current Carpentry Licence who has contemporary industry experience. Role three:

- Building industry experience (design, construction or inspection work)
- Thorough knowledge of the Building Act 2004 (the Act) and the Building Code
- Experience in tribunal or other decision-making processes
- An ability to weigh evidence, determine facts and make fair, well-reasoned decisions
- Experience of working in a collegial decision-making environment. Under section 345 of the Act, the Minister may appoint a person as a member of the Board only if, in the Minister’s opinion, the person is qualified for appointment:

- Having regard to the functions, duties and powers of the Board.
- Because of that person’s knowledge, experience or expertise. Applicants for a Board member role should have the necessary skills and experience to enable them to meet the requirements of a member as set out in the relevant legislation, and have the demonstrated skills to contribute to board-level decision-making. Applicants must have the legal right to work in New Zealand.

For further information on the role, please refer to the position description.
