Strata Management (Compounding of Offences) 2019

Whilst we see a lack of enforcement being taken against a party who contravenes the provisions in Strata Management Act 2013 and Strata Management (Maintenance and Management) Regulations 2015, it is encouraging to see that the Minister has made further regulations (by virtue of Section 150(2)(e) of the Strata Management Act 2013) relating to compounding of offences.

The Strata Management (Compounding of Offences) Regulations 2019 lists down the offences which can be compounded in the 1st Schedule. Pursuant to Regulation 4, the Commissioner of Buildings (COB) is allowed to issue a notice of offer to compound after the investigation is completed and offence is found to be committed.

The list of compoundable offences are: Ss 6(6), 9(5), 10(7), 11(7), 12(9), 14(5), 15(4), 18(2), 26(5), 27(4), 29(3), 30(2), 30(3), 34(3), 48(4), 49(3), 50(4), 51(3), 54(5), 55(4), 57(2), 62(5), 72(2), 72(3), 78(3), 89(5), 91(2), 92(6), 151(2) of the Strata Management Act 2013 and Regs 6(5), 7(4), 9(7), 9(8), 19(2), 21(5), 25(3), 30(2), 32(5), 34(2), 43(5), 44(3), 63(2) and 70 of the Strata Management (Maintenance and Management) Regulations 2015.

with the new compound regulations, developers and the management bodies will adhere to the law more strictly.

    Hi, I am currently own a apartment and I would like to know more on this compound regulation.

    Reason being, my unit is at the lower floor with balcony area, and there was a suicide incident happened 2 months back and the person exactly fall and pass away within my balcony area. His family member seems irresponsible on the damage so I would like to know my rights and if I can claim them against the proporty value of my unit after the incident? May I have a full copy of regulation?

    Thanks in advance

    What happened if the chairman refuse to call for the AGM even after his 2 years term expired. Can he still can make decisions and manage the building without a property manager or registered building supervisor. Thanks
