Code of professional conduct
5 Code of professional conduct
For section 66(2) of the Act, the code of professional conduct for valuers consists of—
the provisions of schedule 1; and
if the board approves a document for inclusion in the code—the approved document.
To the extent of any inconsistency between a provision of schedule 1 and a document mentioned in subsection (1)(b), the provision of schedule 1 prevails.
If the board approves a document for inclusion in the code, the board must—
publish the document on the board’s website; and
keep copies of the document available for inspection, at the board’s office, by members of the public during business hours; and
give each registered valuer a written notice stating—
that the board has approved the document for inclusion in the code; and
the version number or other identifying information for the document; and
the day on which the document takes effect as part of the code.
For subsection (3)(c)(iii), the day stated in the notice must be—
for a document published by the Australian Property Institute—at least 5 days after the day the notice is given; or
for another document—at least 30 days after the day the notice is given.
The document takes effect as part of the code on the day stated in the notice.
