 SECTION 7A(1) OF REA

• Notwithstanding section 7(1), a sole proprietorship,

partnership or body corporate may practise as an
Engineering consultancy practice and recover in any court
any fee, charge, remuneration or other form of
consideration for any professional engineering services
rendered by it pursuant to its practice as an Engineering
consultancy practice carried on by virtue of this section, if
it is registered with the Board as an Engineering
consultancy practice and has been issued with a certificate
of registration.
SECTION 15(1) OF REA

• Sec 15 (1) The Disciplinary Committee may make any

order (sub section 1A) against a registered person if :

(m) if he causes or suffers any sole proprietorship,

partnership or body corporate in which he is a sole
proprietor, partner, director or shareholder to
practice as an Engineering Consultancy Practice prior
to its registration by the board.
 FIRST CASE OF ENGINEER
DEREGISTERED FOR FOLLOWING
REASONS:-

• Failure to deposit copies of CCC to PBT and BEM.

• Allowed the building to be occupied without CCC.
• Falsified the receipt date stamp of PBT OSC for Form G13 to
G21 in order to mislead the developer.
 DISCOVERIES FROM CCC
SUBMISSIONS
• Sole proprietor firms or individual PEs operating
without ECPs registered with BEM.
• Use of forged PE stamp to sign Form Gs.
• Fraudulent engineers - names not on BEM list.
• Engineers signing Form Gs under wrong disciplines.
• Engineers still not knowing or bother to get
information from BEM website on CCC process
resulting in a lot of mistakes in their submissions.
• Engineers not responding in timely manner to BEM's
notifications for explanations or clarifications.
 FUTURE DIRECTION FOR CCC

• The amendment to Registration of Engineers Act in 2015 has

introduced Inspector of Works (IOW) and BEM is in the
process of registering them.
• BEM will seek the revision of Form Gs to include another
space for the SP’s site supervision staff to sign for greater
accountability.
