The National Construction Authority (NCA) has today sent out a warning notice to contractors operating without being duly registered by the authority. This comes at the wake of the authority’s completion on the national wide registration exercise of all contractors.
According to the National Construction Act, no person should carry on the business of a contractor unless the person is registered by the Board.
“Any person who contravenes section 15 (1) of the Act commits an offense and shall be liable on conviction to a fine not exceeding on million shillings, or imprisonment…”states a section of the NCA Act.
NCA has thus called upon all procuring entities, developers and employers requiring contractors’ services as defined in the Act to insist on the production of proof of registration of the contractor by the NCA before engaging their services and avoid breaching the law. A complete register of contractors is available on NCA’s website.
Over 20,000 contractors have been registered in the registration exercise which commenced early this year and the certificates are due for issuing from April 1st-15th 2014as follows:-
–Nairobi-Contractors to collect certificates at the former ministry of Public Works Supplies Branch, off Likoni Road Industrial Area.
–Mombasa, Kisumu, Kitui and Nakuru-Contractors to send to 0700 021 222 to confirm their county. Certificates will then be delivered to NCA’s respective county offices.
–Contractors in counties not listed above are advised to collect their certificates from the former Ministry of Public Works Sports Club in South C, Nairobi.
