  1. A maximum period of ten years before the rotation of a valuation firm; this might include multiple engagements
  2. A maximum single engagement period of five years
  3. A maximum period of five years before the rotation of an individual responsible valuer
  4. A minimum three-year break after rotating off an engagement
  5. A transition policy to allow that a smooth transition to the new arrangements has been incorporated, allowing two years before the new rules will be enforced.
