The Building Services (Registration) Act 2011 requires that an individual, partnership or company that carries out, or contracts to carry out, 'painter-work' valued over $1,000 (within the area of jurisdiction) must be a registered painting service 'contractor'.

Individuals that are registered painting 'practitioners' can not contract with others to provide painting services, but may wish to be the nominated supervisor of a registered 'painting service contractor'.

Painters registered under the former Painters' Registration Act 1961 are automatically registered as both 'painting service practitioners' and 'painting service contractors'. 

Please note: 

The register currently contains both active and inactive painters. Those who are inactive appear in the register with the address column blank.
