When should a developer stop submitting the auditors report?
Is it after full withdrawal of excess fund from HDA account when project completed?
Yes. After full withdrawal.
If reservoir construction works incurred, Can this payment can be withdrawn from the Housing Development Account?
I assume the reservoir is part of a housing project under the Housing Development Act. The answer is yes. The bank in which the Housing Development bank account was opened would ensure that all documents are proper before allowing the money to be withdrawn.
