2024年4月3日，新加坡國家發展部長李智陞在國會上關於組屋街區停車場和公共空間維護職責移交前的聯合現場檢查的發言。
以下內容為新加坡眼根據國會英文資料翻譯整理：
蔡慶威（盛港集選區議員）問國家發展部長
（a）組屋區域停車場和公共設施的維護協議中是否規定了由建屋發展局和有關市鎮理事會聯合進行交接前的現場檢查？
（b）是否有建屋發展局停車場或住宅樓沒有經過聯合檢查，而由市鎮理事會開始維護的情況？
李智陞：根據市鎮理事會法案，市鎮理事會（TCs）負責管理和維護建屋發展局公共設施。在住宅樓完工前，建築發展局將向市鎮理事會介紹關鍵的移交細節，然後共同開展公共設施檢查。這項由建屋發展局和市鎮理事會聯合進行的檢查是在市鎮理事會接管公共設施維護工作之前進行的。聯合檢查的目的是確定缺陷並解決市鎮理事會提出的問題。
建屋發展局停車場不同於公共設施。市鎮理事會代表建屋發展局依照雙方達成的協議維護停車場。根據該協議，市鎮理事會進行例行維護工作以保持建屋發展局停車場處於良好和可使用，清潔、適當的狀態。當停車場完工並對公眾開放時，建屋發展局將與相關市鎮理事會進行聯合檢查。聯合檢查的目的主要是確定需要由建築承包商整改的任何缺陷。聯合檢查後，檢查表將由建屋發展局和市鎮理事會簽署認可。
有些停車場分階段開放，以允許已經入住的居民儘快使用停車場。這些停車場將分階段移交給市鎮理事會，並在最終開放前進行聯合檢查。我們在2023年10月的一次回覆中已經說明，在這種情況下，對每個階段的開放進行聯合檢查可能不太實際，這是因為承包商的工人仍將進出停車場，停車場的其餘部分仍在進行施工，因此在最終檢查時明確承包商的缺陷責任會更為實際。市鎮理事會也會事先被告知，在接管後發現任何問題，請提供缺陷詳情給建屋發展局。
建屋發展局將繼續與市鎮理事會密切合作，確保設施的順利移交，並在必要時完善移交流程。
以下是英文質詢內容：
Mr Chua Kheng Wee Louis asked the Minister for National Development (a) whether an agreement for the maintenance of parking spaces and common property of HDB residential blocks mandate joint site inspections to be conducted by both HDB and the relevant Town Council prior to a handover; and (b) whether there are instances where the maintenance of a HDB parking space or residential block by a Town Council had commenced without a joint inspection first being conducted.
Mr Desmond Lee: Under the Town Councils Act, Town Councils (TCs) are responsible for managing and maintaining the Housing & Development Board (HDB) common property. Prior to the completion of HDB residential blocks, HDB will brief the TC on key handover details, before conducting a joint inspection of the common property. This joint inspection by HDB and the TC is done prior to the commencement date upon which the TC will take over the maintenance of the common property. The purpose of the joint inspection is to identify defects and address issues raised by the TC.
HDB car parks are not common property. TCs maintain HDB car parks on behalf of HDB under Maintenance Agreements between HDB and the TCs. Under these agreements, TCs carry out routine maintenance work, keep HDB car parks in a state of good and serviceable repair and maintain them in a clean and proper condition. HDB will initiate a joint inspection with the relevant TC when a car park is completed and opened for public use. The purpose of the joint inspection is primarily to identify any defects for rectification by the building contractor. After the joint inspection, the inspection form will be endorsed by both HDB and the TC.
There are instances where car parks were opened in phases, to allow residents who have started moving in to use the car parks as soon as possible. These car parks were progressively handed over to the TCs in phases and joint inspections were held prior to the final phase of opening. We have stated in a previous reply in October 2023 that in such instances, it may not be practical to carry out joint inspections for every phase of opening. This is because contractors' workers would still be going in and out of the car park due to ongoing works in other parts of the car park, and it would be more practical to carry out the final inspection at the end so that contractors' defect liability is clearly laid out. The TCs are also informed upfront to note any defects that they discover after they take over and to provide the details of the defects to HDB.
HDB will continue to work closely with the TCs to ensure smooth handovers for HDB developments and refine the handover process where necessary.
