The vendor did not owe a tortious duty of care as developer or head contractor; however the vendor breached clause 6.2(5)(b) because the completed works did not comply with the building consent insofar as conditions 14 (construction to NZS 3604:1999/joinery requirements) and 16 (finished floor levels) were not met; the matter is remitted to the Tribunal to assess quantum of damages and effects of post-agreement events on purchasers' rights.
