- Replacement Code of Practice

The Retirement Villages Code of Practice 2008 has now been approved by the Minister of Building and Construction, and will come into force on 2 October 2009. A copy of the Code can be downloaded for free from the website of the Department of Building and Housing website. Hard copies of the code are also available at a charge, by phoning Viv Books at the Department of Building and Housing on 0800 370 370.
Until the new Code comes into force, registration documentation for villages should reflect the fact that there is currently no Code in place.
