Any public consultation will be notified on the MBIE website.</p> <h2>Extension of earthquake-prone building remediation deadlines</h2> <p>As previously agreed by Cabinet, remediation deadlines for earthquake-prone buildings that had not lapsed as at 2 April 2024 will be extended for four years, to allow time for the Review and any subsequent changes to take place. The Bill to give effect to the extension had its first reading on 8 August and is expected to be passed by the end of 2024.</p> <h2>Timeline</h2> <p>The Review is the first of three key stages to improve how seismic risk is managed in existing buildings. The three stages and their estimated timeframes are shown below. We are currently at Stage 1.</p> <h3>Stage 1: Review of seismic risk management in existing buildings</h3> <p>2024-mid 2025</p> <ul> <li>Appointment of steering group members and chair</li> <li>Examination of current state of earthquake-prone building system, including cost-benefit analysis</li> <li>Summary and assessment of future state options</li> <li>Final report summarising findings and high-level recommendations drafted and provided to Government</li> <li>Final report published.</li> </ul> <h3>Stage 2: Options to deliver the recommendations of the Review</h3> <p>Mid-2025 to 2026</p> <ul> <li>Detailed development and assessment of options to deliver on the recommendations accepted by the Government at Stage 1</li> <li>Discussion document released for public consultation</li> <li>Final Government decisions for changes to be made via legislative amendment and/or non-regulatory measures.</li> </ul> <h3>Stage 3: Legislative process (if required) and implementation</h3> <p>Commencing in 2026</p> <ul> <li>Drafting, introduction and passage of Bill (if any)</li> <li>Implementation of any regulatory and non-regulatory measures.</li> </ul> <h2>Cabinet
