Until this proclamation was signed, the Act existed on paper but wasn't active.\n\n**Who made it:** The Governor-General (Quentin Bryce) signed this on 8 July 2010, acting on government advice and using powers granted by section 22(3) of the Act itself.\n\n**Why it matters:** If you were buying, selling, or leasing large commercial office space (typically over 1,000 square metres), this document marks the moment you became legally required to obtain and disclose a Building Energy Efficiency Certificate (BEEC) — basically an energy rating like the stars on your fridge, but for buildings."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/building-energy-efficiency-disclosure-act-2010-proclamation","history":"/api/acts/building-energy-efficiency-disclosure-act-2010-proclamation/history","analysis":"/api/acts/building-energy-efficiency-disclosure-act-2010-proclamation/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/building-energy-efficiency-disclosure-act-2010-proclamation/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/building-energy-efficiency-disclosure-act-2010-proclamation/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/building-energy-efficiency-disclosure-act-2010-proclamation/documents"}}
