To further improve the Building Management Ordinance,
Home Affairs Bureau submitted to the Legislative Council
the Building Management (Amendment) Bill 2005 and the
draft Building Management (Third Party Risks Insurance)
Regulation 2005 in April 2005. The Bill aims to assist OCs in performing their duties and exercising their powers, safeguard the interests of property owners, and rationalize the appointment procedures of a management committee and its members.
The Bill was approved by the Legislative Council on 25
April 2007 and became the Building Management (Amendment)
Ordinance 2007 (BM(A)O). It commenced operation on 1
August 2007.
The Legislative Council passed the resolution to amend the Building Management (Third Party Risks Insurance) Regulation on 7 November 2007. After consulting the Legislative Council Panel on Home Affairs in December 2008, the Administration decided to appoint 1 January 2011, as the commencement date of the Regulation and the amended section 28 of the Building Management Ordinance.
