Introduction

This form of agreement is based on the Third Edition, Contract for the Appointment of an Approved Inspector available from CICAIR and the Association of Consultant Approved Inspectors.

These terms will not apply in the case of HRBs under the responsibility of the BSR whether by transition or not. It is the responsibility of the applicant to establish whether their building currently either falls within the definition of an HRB, will become an HRB by virtue of the proposed building work or change of use or if they fail to commence works prior to the transition date as under per the new definition of commencement of work.

1.5. On receipt of our signed appointment form we will commence work. If we start acting for you at your verbal request, you agree that you are bound by these Terms of Business.

1.6. We reserve the right to refuse any appointment, for example: if the works are outside our preferred geographical area; if we believe that we do not have the technical or manpower resources to deal with your instructions properly or; if we become aware of a conflict of interest or of a failure to comply for some other reasons.

1.7. We reserve the right to terminate the appointment if it is appearing to us there is a fundamental or repudiatory breach of contract (such as non-payment of fees) or that for other such reason we are not able to discharge our function properly as a Building Control Body.
