The repair to the lift driving motor constituted repair and maintenance of the building and therefore construction work within the statutory definition; the lift machine room where that work was undertaken was a construction site under the Regulations and the routine character of the work did not alter that classification. Further, the Magistrate's oral verdict, supplemented by a full written Statement of Findings, rendered the conviction neither unsafe nor unsatisfactory; consequently leave to appeal was properly refused.
