Effect of contract for valuation services
22 Effect of contract for valuation services
Without limitation, the terms and conditions of a contract for valuation services may regulate the manner in which valuation services are to be carried out and, in particular, contracts may contain provisions – setting out the principles and methods according to which valuation services are to be carried out; and establishing performance indicators to assist with assessing the effectiveness and efficiency of the valuation services that have been carried out; and prescribing the qualifications of persons (including valuation contractors and employees or agents of valuation contractors) who may exercise specified functions; and identifying persons (including valuation contractors and employees or agents of valuation contractors) and the functions which are to be performed by those persons; and imposing restrictions on the exercise of specified functions; and prescribing responsibilities of valuation contractors during the contract period; and setting out the obligations of valuation contractors to provide assistance to the Valuer-General in dealing with objections under Part 5 and determining objections under Part 7 or 8.
A contract land valuer is not an agent of, and does not represent, the Valuer-General, except where expressly provided by, or under, this or any other Act or by the terms of the relevant contract.
