The importance of basic building product information cannot be underestimated. Poor information can lead to delays in consenting and increased cost, and it can lead to poor building outcomes if products are chosen that are not fit for purpose. The new product information requirements in the bill will help builders, designers, consumers, and others choose the right products for the right job in the right place, and they will help building consent authorities to make faster decisions on building consents and will reduce the number of requests for further information—and I know that's a particular issue in my area.
