Victoria’s building industry has called for an amnesty from prosecution for building dodgy high-rises with flammable cladding:
The Master Builders Association says the Andrews government’s get-tough approach, including “litigious posturing” and rhetoric on dodgy builders, is damaging the effort to tackle the [flammable cladding] crisis.
More than 1200 buildings with risky levels of flammable cladding are included on the state government’s list – which is not publicly available – but the association believes there are potentially many more buildings around Victoria that could be dangerous.
