The Minister of Public Works and Infrastructure:
(1) I have been informed by the Council for the Built Environment that:
(a) the CBE does not have members that register with it like the Councils for the Built Environment (CBEP). It is an umbrella body charged with the mandate, among others, of promoting sound governance of the built environment professions and also in line with Section 3 (h) of its establishing Act, the Council for the Built Environment Act, 2000 (Act No. 43 of 2000):-
(i) required qualifications;
(ii) standards of education;
(iii) training and competence;
(iv) promotion of professional status;
(v) legislation impacting on the built environment; and
(vi) ensure the uniform application of norms and guidelines set by the councils for the professions throughout the built environment.
