  • Documentation2: Extension of a Decimal value for use with monetary values where a currency code needs to be specified. The currency code is actually metadata about the value so, in line with good XML practice, the Currency Code is declared as an XML-Attribute of the Money datatype rather than as a separate XML-Element. The currency attribute should then include a list of valid currencies codes that are supported.

  • Documentation2: Details of the Professional Indemnity Insurance policy used to provide cover against a compensation claim against any particular Home Condition Report. A particular Home Condition Report may be covered by an Professional Indemnity Insurance policy in one of three different ways: * The Home Inspector has personal Professional Indemnity Insurance and the Home Condition Report is covered by this. * The Home Condition Report is covered by an umbrella Professional Indemnity Insurance policy held by the Home Condition Report Supplier that assigned the inspection to the Home Inspector. * An individual insurance policy is taken out to cover the individual report such as the case where the property is unusual and falls outside the Home Inspectors normal Professional Indemnity Insurance policy. A Home Inspector may use any or all of these methods to providing Professional Indemnity Insurance for a Home Condition Report on a case-by-case basis.
