Thousands of property owners across Australia could soon be faced with unavoidable multi-million-dollar bills - or even prison - if they fail to ensure buildings constructed with flammable cladding materials don’t meet new safety regulations.

And while each state and territory is approaching the life-threatening issue differently, it is in NSW where unknowing residents could be hit with ginormous bills they have no way of avoiding or face being fined - or even sent to jail.
That’s because this month, not only did the state Liberal government outlaw multiple flammable cladding types, including ACP, on new and existing buildings of two storeys or higher - requiring owners to register them online and work towards removing the panelling or sufficiently mitigating any risk - but they also moved to ban the material retrospectively.

That means residents of buildings built years ago with the cladding must now also rectify what is deemed dangerous.

The trouble is that no one wants to pay:

The owners blame the builders.
The builders blame the Council inspectors.
The Council blames the Federal Govt. for allowing it to be imported.

Over 1 million hack attacks on S.A.s land title system

South Australia's Planning Minister Stephan Knoll yesterday confirmed parts of the recently privatised system "was shutdown following a high number of overseas data searches" by 'guest account' search facilities.

The search feature allows anyone to access information such as the amount of money a person borrowed to purchase a property, along with their personal information such as their names, allotment numbers and certificate of title details

I should be able to find out if there was unlawful access
to my records by going online and checking.
If so, I intend to sue the Govt. for mega bucks.
It should be easy money.
