STRATA TITLES ACT 1988 - SECT 13

13—Amendment by order of ERD Court

        (1)         The ERD Court may, on application under this section, order the amendment of a strata plan.

        (2)         An application may be made under this section by—

            (a)         the strata corporation; or

            (b)         a unit holder; or

            (c)         any other person who has a registered interest in a unit; or

            (d)         an insurer of a unit or any of the common property.

        (3)         Such an application may only be made—

            (a)         for the purpose of correcting an error in the plan;

            (b)         for the purpose of varying the unit entitlements of the units;

            (c)         for the purpose of achieving amendments that have become desirable in view of damage to buildings within the strata scheme;

            (d)         for the purpose of achieving any other amendments that are desirable in the circumstances of the particular case.

        (3a)         If it appears to the ERD Court that the proposed amendment of the strata plan could adversely affect a person who is not a party to the proceedings, the ERD Court should not order the amendment unless the ERD Court is satisfied that the person has been notified of the possibility that such an order could be made and has been given a reasonable opportunity to make submissions to the Court in relation to the matter.

        (3b)         In determining an application under this section the ERD Court must have regard to the matters (if any) prescribed by regulation.

        (4)         The ERD Court may, on an application under this section, make—

            (a)         an order for amendment of the strata plan;

            (b)         any further orders that may be necessary to achieve justice between those affected by the amendment;

            (c)         incidental or ancillary orders.

        (5)         Where an order for the amendment of a strata plan is made, the Registrar-General will, on lodgement of the order and any other documentary material the Registrar-General requires, amend the plan in accordance with the order.
