A decision made by the Ministry of Building Innovation and Employment (MBIE), means costly building work Christchurch City Council insisted on, is not necessary. A determination was sought from MBIE by a Christchurch man after council staff decided his two multi-unit buildings didn’t meet the building code. David Townshend submitted an application to CCC in late May 2024, for a building consent to construct seven units in Riccarton. The council denied the consent. Mr Townshend says the issue came down to how the council was interpreting an Acceptable Solution, which is a way of meeting the building code, relating to the fire rating of the building’s external walls.

He says this is illustrated by the recent moratorium issued by the California Insurance Commissioner, Ricardo Lara, who has ordered insurance companies to have a one-year mo...
