Latent Defects: Discussion
Mr. Matt Cleary:
The figure of 92,000 comes from percentages calculated by a managing agent who looks after numerous developments around the country. He based this on the proportion of his portfolio impacted by building defects, that is, 70%. The figure of 92,000 is derived from the number of developments constructed during that time and that agent's estimate of the 70% prevalence observed by his company.
