The regulations provide that a developer is only be eligible for the Scheme if they have developed or refurbished specific types of residential buildings relevant to the Scheme. Once a developer has joined the Scheme, Regulation 27 enables membership to be ended without sanction where the member has substantially satisfied their obligations under the Scheme.
