If our older strata plan building doesn't require an annual fire safety audit, do the upcoming changes impact our building?

Our pre-1979 strata plan building does not currently require an annual fire safety certificate. Do the upcoming changes to fire safety regulations in NSW law impact our building?

There is no change, however…..

It makes no change; however, if your building has fire equipment, it makes sense to maintain the equipment to meet the obligations under strata legislation. AS1851-2012 is the most relevant Australian Standard to use for this maintenance undertaking.
