The Builders Collective of Australia have started a petition on Change.org asking for a Royal Commission into the building industry in Australia.
Amongst other things they cite the recent fiasco over flammable cladding and a report issued by the Faculty of the Built Environment at the University of NSW in 2012 which stated that:
85% of respondents in buildings built since 2000, indicated that one or more defect(s) had been present in their (strata) scheme
at some stage. For owners in (strata) schemes built since 2000 that had defects, 75% said that there were still some defects ... ....that had not been fixed.
They also mention that there have been almost 70 reviews/inquiries over the past decade and a half which don't seem to have resolved the issues facing the building industry.
