Ready, steady, build!
A new system that promises to fasttrack New Zealand’s red-tape-ridden
building consent processes has just
come into effect. How does it work, and
how will it benefit the industry?
MONEY MATTERS
Long-winded, complicated, unnecessary
and very costly consent procedures
have long been the bane of Kiwi
builders’ lives.
In order to lighten the load on the
industry, the National Government has
now acted on its promise to cut through
the red tape, and so reduce compliance
costs and prevent building delays. The
‘knight in shining armour’ is a new socalled National Multiple-Use Approval
service (NMUAs), effective from 1
February this year. The service is part of
a package of initiatives that involves the
review of the Building Act from 2004.

So what are NMUAs and what is their
purpose in life? Basically they work on
the principle that where the same design
will be used to build more than one
dwelling, you can get the design preapproved for Building Code compliance
with the Department of Building and
Housing.
The time limit on an NMUA from the
time a builder applies for it until it is
approved is a reasonable 40 working
days. Better still, there aren’t any
‘geographic limits to NMUA-approved
designs, which means they can be
built several times over in any part of
the country.

New legislation will allow the recycling of building consents.

Once a design has been approved for
replication, the builder then applies to
the local council’s Building Consent
Authority (BCA) for a building consent.
The BCA’s job is to then inspect the site
conditions, foundations and utilities
such as power and water, and to make
sure that any NMUA specs have been
followed. Provided all affairs are in
order, they have to then issue the consent
within 10 working days – that’s literally
half of the ‘conventional’ 20 days.
With the Building Code Compliance
having been established, the process
is now much simpler, and the BCA can
focus all their time on getting the site
inspections done and processing oneoff plans more quickly. That means
you’re not only saving time, but also
the extra expenses that builders – and
consumers – clock up due to building
consent delays.
Sounds like a godsend for the industry
but exactly who will benefit? At this
stage, ‘volume builders’ can apply for
NMUAs. Volume builders are those who
build kitset homes, group homes made
up of simple standardised one to two
storey buildings and semi-detached
houses, as well as builders of standalone garages, sheds, outbuildings
and large-scale buildings such as
retirement villages. In a nutshell, a volume
builder is someone who can replicate the
proposed design, if approved, at least 10
times in a two-year period.
Having a standard design pre-approved
not only saves the builder time and
money, it will also serve as a valuable
tool to market yourself as a builder.
According to the Minister for Building
and Housing, Hon Maurice Williamson;
“it will provide your customers with a
streamlined consenting process, it will
give you a marketing edge in these
challenging economic times.”
So how much does it cost to get
an NMUA? Based on Department
estimates, a NMUA for a simple oneor two-storey dwelling will cost about
$5,500 to $9,000. Some designs will
need specialist work, depending on
how complex the design is, and where
factors like fire protection and accessibility
have to be considered.
When applying for an NMUA, it’s also
compulsory to include all the Code
compliant changes you are planning
to make to your standard design. This
enables the Department to consider
each variation at the same time as
the design, and as part of its overall
approval process. Again, it’s all in the
name of saving money and time!
Not surprisingly, it appears many Kiwi
builders strongly support the new system,
too. In a 2009 survey of New Zealand
volume builders, many of the participants
gave the system the thumbs up, and
showed interest in filing an application.

The word at Carters
On the go for 2010!
Welcome back, hope you enjoyed
some time away from the site over the
holidays, and have returned to work
rested and revived. It’s hard to believe
we are in a new decade and it will take
a few months to get used to putting 10
on the end instead of 09.
Here at Carters, we’re rested up and
excited about some of the great things
we have organised this year for you.
The Carters Advantage team have put
together great trips this year, first to
Barefoot Fiji in June, then heading to
Melbourne for Boots ‘n’ All Bledisloe
in July and Footloose New York in
August.
We’re expecting a big turnout and are
sure there will be some stories of ‘the
one that got away’ told!
Some of the features to look at this
month are Money Matters ‘Balancing
the books’ on page 3, 8 pages of great
product offers and the Future-Proof
Building article “Housing Trends for
the next decade” on page 13.
And at last for the rugby fans, Super
14 kicks off this month, so we’re back
into the rugby season. Check out our
Carters GIB Aqualine® offer and get

INTERNATIONAL NEWS
Community
New Paint Job?
In December, most Auckland stores
were transformed into art studios
as celebrities decorated playhouses
onsite. This change from business as
usual had many customers stopping
to have a chat and find out how they
could get their hands on a playhouse
for their kids!
The playhouse decoration came about
as part of our 150 year celebrations.
Carters felt it was a good time to give
something back to the community
that had helped us reach this
achievement.
Fifteen playhouses were built by
Carters and painted by Kiwi celebrities
including Sally Ridge, Shane Cameron,
the Warriors, Peter Urlich, and Cocksy’s
family. These playhouses then went up
for auction on www.sella.co.nz to raise
funds for KidsCan StandTall.
KidsCan provides the basics like
shoes, raincoats and food for underprivileged Kiwi kids so they can thrive
at school. Carters also supported
KidsCan earlier in the year by building
a house which was auctioned off as
part of the Big Night In telethon.
The auctions closed just in time for the
playhouses to arrive at the winners’
homes for Christmas. Carters raised
over $9000, with all proceeds going to
the charity. Thanks to the suppliers that
came onboard to support this initiative
including CHH Woodproducts, Wattyl
Taubmans and Paint Aids Ltd.
End of this month is the Carters Beach
and Boat competition at the new location
– Marsden Cove Marina, Ruakaka.

Continued from cover
expertise under their belt, are one
company that supports and welcomes
this new initiative. Says General
Manager Matt Tipa: “This scheme will
provide opportunities to submit standard
plans that have a national approval for
construction anywhere in New Zealand,
without the current interpretational
differences of the Building Code. I see
this scheme opening up opportunities
for innovative thinking over time,
provided it gets a ‘buy in’ from the
building officials at the BCAs. There are
real positives for this scheme, which has
to be beneficial for all parties and
especially the customer.”
As for the future of NMUAs, the plan is
to include light commercial buildings
like petrol stations and, according to
the Department’s Dave Kelly, Deputy
Chief Executive, Building Quality “any
highly standardised building, such as a
restaurant chain.”

Balancing
the BooKs
about the longer-term goals that you
have set.
• Identify areas within your business
where you could improve processes
and better utilise the assets to improve
profitability.

Money Matters is recognised by the
Department of Building and Housing
as contributing towards the Licensed
Building Practitioner scheme for
skills maintenance. So if you are a
Carpentry, Site 1 or 2 licence holder,
by reading this article you will get
1 point towards your skills maintenance.
Budgeting is a word that usually brings
out a groan in people as soon as it is
mentioned, yet it is something that should
be present in both your personal life as
well as your working life. Understanding
and coming to terms with the intricacies
of the budgeting process is something
that can greatly enhance your personal
finances but more particularly your
business finances.
Budgeting is an important part of any
business in that the budget itself is a
plan that you have developed to reach
the goals and objectives that have been
set. This is even more relevant in tough
economic conditions where money is
tight and every penny counts, so keeping
track of your cash flow and planning in
advance, takes on a whole new level of
importance.
The advantages of proper budgeting can
have positive effects on almost all aspects
of your business. Budgets can:
• Assist in communicating your plan
for the future through your entire
business.
• Help you as an owner and the people
you employ to think about and plan for
the future. It is too easy to get bogged
down in the day to day issues and forget
• G i v e y o u b e t t e r c o n t ro l a n d
accountability within your business.
Employees will be more accountable
as they will have budgetary measures
in place and will need to be able to
explain any variances from the budget.
• If done correctly, should give you a
better picture of how your business
performs throughout the year, the
highs and lows, associated bottlenecks
and cash flow issues that may arise.
By identifying these early, it will
enable you to put in place measures
to take advantage of the good months
and conversely it can forewarn you
of a downturn, thereby enabling you
minimise to any adverse effects.
Taking into account these advantages,
the success of any budget will hinge
largely on the way in which the budget
is developed. In particular for a budget
to have any chance of being successful
there needs to be employee “buy in”. This
effectively means that your employees
need to believe in the budget and have
a sense of ownership over the budget
itself. This is usually through involving
employees in the budgeting process and
letting employees/managers participate
in preparing the budget.
Budgets can be a good holiday project
for owners as it allows you to start off
the year with a fresh new approach.

LegAL mAtteRs
the Value oF personal propertY
The primary area of property it does not
apply to is a security over an interest in
land which has a separate regime.

Legal Matters is recognised by the

Building Practitioner scheme for skills
maintenance. So if you are a Carpentry,
Site 1 and 2 building participant by
reading this article you will get 1 point
towards your skills maintenance.
The Personal Property Securities Act
1999, and the new securities register
created pursuant to it, has now been
in operation for 10 years. It enables
the granting and registration of
securities over most forms
of property securing the payment of
money and/or the performance
of obligations.
Most commonly it will be used
by suppliers in terms of trade to
customers protecting the value of
goods supplied until payment has been
received. It might also be commonly
used as a security over shares or over
a particular item of equipment or
valuable intellectual property.
A security interest must be granted in
some form of writing. It will typically
be incorporated into Terms of Sale and
become binding when the customer
signs the Account Application Form
containing the terms.
What assets the security interest is
secured against depends upon both the
wording when the security interest is
granted and the collateral description
used in registering the security interest
on the PPSR (Personal Property
Security Register). It provides both a
security over those goods whilst not
paid for, unless legitimately sold in
the ordinary course of business, and
a potential interest in the proceeds of
sale and/or any debt arising from the
sale.
Rights of Recovery
Exercising rights under the security
interest in practice will depend upon
whether the goods are still held by
the customer, whether they have been
mixed with other goods which might
create difficulties and whether they are
worth recovering - do they have any
ongoing value, are they resaleable.
Priority
Some creditors such as banks or
owners of companies or businesses
may take a general security over all
present and future property acquired
by the business entity securing monies
advanced and owing. This will provide
such a holder with an umbrella
security. However a subsequent holder
of a security interest in the form of a
‘purchase money security interest’ will
take priority provided it is registered on
the PPSR within 30 days of the security
interest being granted. Therefore if
used properly a supplier of goods to a
customer can gain priority of recovery
against those goods ahead of prior
registered security holders. Liquidators
and receivers must also have regard to
registered security interests.
In summary the PPSR is a useful way of
protecting monies owing or obligations
to be performed. It is readily searchable
by the public in respect of an owner of
certain property to identify whether
personal property is already subject to
security interests.

FUTURE-PROOF BUILDING
Housing trends for the next decade
The last 10-15 years have seen massive
changes in the way we design and
build residential property and there is
no reason to think that this trend won’t
continue with both quality and fashion
trends changing significantly over time.
If the past 10 years has taught us
anything, it is that the inherent quality
of a building is paramount, and the
challenges over the past have meant
that our consumers are more and
more aware of construction methods,
products and results than perhaps they
have been in the past.
Changing housing requirements and
population spread will drive much of
the changing face of New Zealand’s
housing needs through to 2020. Some
of the key areas to look for include:
Demographics
It’s no secret that the baby boomers are
getting older: 30% of New Zealand’s
population will be aged 60 and over
by 2030.
This is having a significant effect on
housing needs with more smaller, more
energy efficient homes and controllable
heating and water heating solutions
being implemented into homes. Look
online at www.lifetimedesign.org.nz to
see an outline of these changing housing
needs including; space for lifts, wider
hallways and fewer stairs in homes.
New Zealand homes are the third largest
in the world, at 193 square metres
on average last year; smartsizing or
downsizing intelligently will become a
catchword.
The rising cost of resources
If you have noticed an increase in the
power bill over the past year or so, get used
to it – our resource costs will skyrocket
over the next few years. Power and gas
will need to be used more efficiently to
reduce cost and, as water is the most
expensive of the basic commodities to
get to our home, we can expect more cost
there too. Buyers will start to prioritise
efficient homes: already EECA research
suggests that energy efficiency is high on
list of what buyers are looking for.
stacker doors, outdoor lighting and sound
systems all becoming tools in creating
the outdoor lounge! Our lifestyle
increasingly requires a home that
incorporates outdoor space into the
overall space of the house. Particularly
as we downsize some homes, creating
outdoor living that feels like part of the
home will increase the perception of
living space for the property.
Who knows what other trends will
develop and change the face of
residential housing? What is undeniable
is that housing will continue to evolve and
Future-Proof Building will continue to
educate and showcase important trends
and information to New Zealanders. To
find building guides and information from
60 of our industry leading companies
visit fpb.co.nz.
Green goes mainstream
Environmentally friendly construction
practices, products, and waste
management systems are becoming a
mainstream activity. Previously, green
building was seen as a selling point. Now
we are seeing it become an expectation
in consumers’ minds. The green wash
marketing practices of the last few years
will give way to mainstream practices that
will reduce our environmental impact.
Indoor/Outdoor Flow
Such a cliché, but it is also a reality and
a highly desirable feature of homes that
sell for a premium. During the last
decade we have seen outdoor fires,
Innovation in indoor/outdoor flow is becoming the norm.

HOOK,
LINE
AND SINKER WITH GRAEME SINCLAIR
HEALTH
WATCH
THOSE BEAUTIFUL BIRDS
Those beautiful birds of the winged and
feathered variety have been my angling
saviour over the past few months.
Where there is bird action there are fish
to be caught and on top of the angling
indicator heap are the gannets. Diving
gannets have hauled some initially quiet
days into the sensational category.
We have been testing a range of new
soft baits, the Gladiators, and have been
heaving them under the flocks of diving
gannets with devastating effect. To get
the baits below the kahawai and down to
the snapper I have been using a four or
five ounce ball sinker and a worm hook.
Conventional jig heads, even the two
ounce version, are just too slow especially
when you are fishing in 40 metres of
water. The kahawai devour them long
before they are in the snapper zone.
I was recently in the Bay of Islands over
the full moon, not my favourite time to
fish, and all was quiet until a few gannets
started to dive. We hauled in the sea
anchor, positioned in behind the action
and instantly had everyone hooked up.
It is always interesting to watch how other
boats work the flocks of diving birds. Far
too many skippers charge in to the middle
of the action and push the bait back down
and cause the birds to disperse.
Some workups are over very quickly
while others linger. Whatever you do
don’t hasten the end of the most exciting
fishing option of the summer. Spend a
little time working out which way the
flock is moving and ‘get in behind’…
close behind.
Drop your jigs, soft baits or conventional
baits, hook up, get the first lot of fish in
and repeat the process. It always pays to
stay put with a second drop before
moving as often there will still be fish
underneath you. The best results in
these situations often require a bit of
team work.
If workups are of short duration I stay on
the helm and focus on the sounder and
GPS making sure that when we drift off
the action I know where they have moved
to. My crew get ready for the next ambush
and as soon as we hit the sign I get them
to drop. In that way we have enjoyed great
success where others have missed out.
Fishing is like hunting on land with one
significant difference; identifying your
target does not guarantee a haul of fish.
You either have to wait for the bite time or
find a way to get fish to bite. That’s where
taking advantage of a good workup is
so important, that and having plenty of
options at your disposal.

A couple of days ago I came back to
Auckland to get a few things in order
before I go back north again and last night
the water temperature did a little jump. A
finger of the warm stuff had moved in.
Sure enough last night I got the call to
say that the fishing had just turned
on and that means a couple of weeks
of crazy kingfish and snapper action.
Chances are that like any good hunt the
mornings and evenings will be the best
but at other times I will be hunting down
those beautiful birds, the gannets and
getting right amongst the workups.

I have just had a phone call from a
friend based in Paihia. For the past

great snapper sign in several Bay of
Islands locations but they were just not
hungry. The water was cold and the fish
lethargic.

Who says birds are bad luck on boats?
Did you know...
• Many years ago in Scotland, a new game was invented. It was ruled that the game
was for; ‘Gentlemen Only... Ladies Forbidden’. And thus, the word ‘GOLF’ entered
into the English language.
• The first couple to be shown in bed together on prime time TV was Fred and
Wilma Flintstone.
• Every day more money is printed for Monopoly than the U.S. Treasury. That is, until
Ben Bernanke took over as Chairman of the United States Federal Reserve and
fired up his printing presses!
• Many years ago in England, pub frequenters had a whistle baked into the rim, or
handle, of their ceramic cups. When they needed a refill, they used the whistle to
get some service. ‘Wet your whistle’ is the phrase inspired by this practice.
