NSW Complete the survey - COVID-19 strata and community laws
Strata owners and managers are invited to complete a short survey about using digital technology in managing strata and community schemes.
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, the NSW Government made temporary changes to the law governing how strata and community schemes meet, vote, and sign documents.
The NSW Government is now considering whether any of these changes, or similar changes, should be permanent. Your participation in this survey will help inform these decisions. Survey open until Thursday 5 August.
