Description
Summary:Certificate of Completion and Compliance ('CCC') was introduced by the Government replacing Certificate of Fitness for Occupation ('CF') since 2007.CCC is produced by Principal Submitting Person ('PSP') being normally the professional architect, professional engineer or building draughtsman.The purpose of CCC is to expedite the development process and its approval for housing projects in Peninsular Malaysia and thus can attract investments. However, the enforcement of CCC may also entail certain side effect problems.These include abusive certifications by the professionals to the detriment of the purchasers in housing projects.This paper will highlight this problem. The research methodology that will be used in producing this paper is a composite between legal research and qualitative research methodologies.This paper finds that there are certain flaws in the application of CCC.Following this, the author proposes solutions to overcome these flaws in order to give better protections to purchasers.
