EXPERT PANEL THURSDAY – 1:45PM – ROOM 203/204

AUSTRALIA’S BUILDING CONTROL SYSTEM – FUNCTIONAL OR FLAWED?Join the discussion with our panel of experts as they debate whether Australia’s building control system delivers efficient and effective outcomes or an industry in crisis, moments from disaster?

This interactive session invites the audience to participate with panellists in a Q&A session, exploring the concepts and discussing the ramifications for the industry and community.

The micro economic reform agenda commencing in the late 1980s ushered in radical changes to approaches to building control in Australia, promising increased efficiency and economic prosperity to improve cost of living and the Australian way of life.

National harmonisation of codes and standards has been a key initiative, as has the privatisation of the building approval process. The introduction of performance based methodologies has also increased flexibility and adoption of latest technologies, and the changes implemented to date confirm that a dramatic change in approach has been steadily implemented.

Trends indicate that building approval remains a key barometer of economic health for the nation but have we risked safety and quality in pursuit of efficiency? Are current building control practices still effective at delivering minimum safety standards? Is there any alignment between government, industry and consumers expectations regarding safety? What is the real cost of rectifying non-compliances or competing in a globally competitive product marketplace still impacted by local conditions and price?

THE FIONA WOOD FOUNDATIONWWW.FIONAWOODFOUNDATION.COM

The Fiona Wood Foundation is an independent not-for-profit organisation which exists to reduce the devastation caused by the physical, psychological and social impacts of burn injury. The foundation exists for current and future patients with the knowledge that every intervention from the point of injury influences the scar worn for life.

‘SPRAY ON SKIN’One of Fiona’s early achievements was the development of a skin culture lab that she co-founded with scientist Marie Stoner. Professor Wood and Marie recognised the potential of tissue engineering technology to treat burns and in 1993 developed a skin culture facility with support from a Telethon grant. Their product evolved into aerosol-delivered cell-clusters, and is known as ‘spray-on skin’. This technology is a world-first and has been used on more than 1,000 patients around the world.
