Questions

What is a building consent?

Written approval from a council (a building consent authority) that planned building work complies with the Building Code. Most new buildings, additions, structural alterations, fires and plumbing and drainage work need one; some minor work is exempt under Schedule 1 of the Building Act 2004.

Where do these figures come from?

The official counts are Stats NZ’s monthly Building consents issued release (CC BY 4.0), covering every consent every council issues. The individual consents listed are ones we hold from councils’ records and other public sources; they are not a complete list for every council.

Official figures: Stats NZ, Building consents issued, licensed CC BY 4.0. Values are as declared on the consent, before GST, in the dollars of the day. Recent months are revised as late consents arrive. Council: Selwyn District Council.
