Remarks
With reference to the requirements as stipulated in Practice Note for Registered Contractors 38 (PNRC 38) issued by the Buildings Department, the Building Authority would refer an application by a Registered General Building Contractor (RGBC) or a Registered Specialist Contractor (RSC) for renewal or restoration of registration to the Contractors Registration Committee (CRC) for interview and assessment if the contractor has been inactive in relevant building works in the past registration period.
Under such circumstances, HKIC has provided the Continuing Professional Development (CPD) course for RGBC and RSC who intended to apply for renewal or restoration of registration. The CPD course is aimed at updating the RGBC and RSC on the latest development of the building industry with particular reference to the legislation, codes of practice, practice notes, etc. Besides, BD has agreed that inactive contractors who do not have a satisfactory job reference on a relevant building project in the past registration period may be exempted from the requirement to attend an interview conducted by the CRC if they have completed the CPD course organised by HKIC not more than 3 years before the date of submission of the renewal or restoration application. However, RGBC and RSC who have conviction or disciplinary records, or have been suspended by the Development Bureau or the Housing Authority to tender for public works in the past registration period, will be required to attend an interview conducted by the CRC upon application for renewal or restoration of registration even if they have attended the CPD course.
