What is Security of Payment?
The Security of Payment framework, governed by the Building and Construction Industry Security of Payment Act 1999 (NSW), empowers claimants, including contractors, developers, and suppliers. This legislation facilitates timely progress payments and outlines a structured process to address delayed or non-payment issues, setting forth strict time frames for compliance.
