To ask the Minister for Environment, Community and Local Government if the Architects Registration Body published its 2010, 2011 and 2012 annual reports as stipulated in section 73 of the Building Control Act 2007; if published, if these reports may be viewed by the public; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

Section 73 of the Building Control Act 2007 requires a registration body, as soon as may be after the end of each year, to prepare a report of its proceedings under the Act during that year. It further requires the report, which must be published and available for purchase by members of the public, to include a copy of the body’s audited accounts in so far as they relate to its income and expenditure in respect of the performance of its functions under the Act.

I understand that the RIAI, as registration body for the purposes of Part 3 of the Act, has reported on its registration activities in its annual reports for 2010 and 2011 and that this will be the case in relation to its annual report for 2012 in due course. The reports in question can be accessed free of charge on the RIAI’s website www.riai.ie.
