Workshops held in most provinces.  Scarcity of appropriate technical skills (NHBRC Developing training materials, particularly for inspectors)  Appropriateness of standards to rural projects (Technical standards reviewed and re-aligned for rural projects)

Enforce compliance to norms, standards and quality within the sector Trained the public sector on technical standards Assisted the Govt in the rectification program of houses NOT enrolled by the NHBRC.
