The Supervision Plan System has been implemented since December 1997 with the issuance of the Technical Memorandum for Supervision Plans (the “Technical
Memorandum”) and the Draft Code of Practice for Site Safety Supervision. The Draft Code was refined in November 2000 with some clarification on the principles and
requirements and some simplification on the procedures.
Pursuant to the enactment of the Buildings (Amendment) Ordinance 2004, the second
edition of the Technical Memorandum and Code of Practice for Site Supervision came into effect on 31 December 2005. The revisions covered inclusion of the requirements
for quality supervision and the qualified supervision requirements for geotechnical works, deletion of the details on assessment of degree of complexity and class of
supervision, and updating of the qualification and experience requirements for TCP and the additional supervision requirements for critical stages of building works.
