This legislation is a lifeline for contractors, suppliers, developers, and subcontractors operating at Kiama and nearby areas like Kiama Downs, Gerringong, Jamberoo, Kiama Heights, Minnamurra, and Rylstone. The Act ensures fairness and swift resolution by enabling them to claim progress payments for services rendered or supplies provided. The legislation outlines a systematic process to address delayed or non-payments. It’s crucial to recognize the Act’s stringent timeframes that all parties must adhere to for effective claims and resolutions.
