What is Security of Payment?
The Security of Payment Act, also known as the Building and Construction Industry Security of Payment Act 1999 (NSW), grants crucial rights and entitlements to claimants in the construction industry. Whether you are a contractor, developer, supplier, or subcontractor, this Act empowers you to demand, receive, and recover progress payments for the work you have completed or goods and services supplied.
Designed to address payment delays and disputes, the Act establishes a structured process that claimants can follow when faced with late or non-payment issues. It is essential to adhere to the Act’s strict and concise time frames to ensure your claims are handled effectively and efficiently.
