Prosecution of Offences against the Surveying Act 2004: Ashley Stacey

The Surveyors Registration Board of Victoria has taken action against Ashley Stacey for carrying out works in connection with a cadastral survey, without registration as a licensed surveyor, in contravention of s 37 (3) of the Surveying Act 2004.

On 13 December 2022, Mr Stacey admitted responsibility for the preparation of two plans of survey which improperly stated that the plans were certified by a licensed surveyor when they had not been.

Mr Stacey has entered into a Diversion Plan in the Ringwood Magistrates’ Court which requires him to make a charitable donation and issue an apology to the licensed surveyor whose name was used on the plans. Additionally, Mr Stacey is required to pay the Board’s costs.
