(ii)
where the building works comprise wholly or partly of any geotechnical building works, a certificate by a specialist accredited checker (who may or may not be the same accredited checker referred to in sub-paragraph (i)) stating that the specialist accredited checker has checked the amended geotechnical aspects of the geotechnical building works and that, to the best of his knowledge and belief, there is no inadequacy in the geotechnical aspects relating to those geotechnical building works; and
