    I am thinking of Phil Hogan and his new Building Control Regulations which take effect from 1st March.

    The SI states (my emphasis)
    “Form of Commencement Notice
    9. (1) A commencement notice shall be—
    (a) filed electronically on the Building Control Management System
    or set out in the form for that purpose included in the Second
    Schedule

    If I am a Self builder who is listening to the minister who has stated words to the effect that I may "declare myself" a builder under his new legislation.
    I have to hand the builders commencement / completion certificates - which one can see at pages 20 and 29 of the SI ... and I am concerned that I do not wish to mis represent myself in a way that I may later regret in the event I am being sued.

    Can I manually complete the certificate and strike through the words "(to be signed by a Principal or Director of a Building Company only)" ?

    Or

    Would doing so "void" the certificate ?

    1. Contact the common law society.
    2. Write "no legal person my staw man says no" on the form.
    3. You can then fill it in any way you like with any colour pen or crayon and it's legal effect is whatever you want it to be.
