What is Security of Payment?
The Security of Payment Act in New South Wales, specifically the Building and Construction Industry Security of Payment Act 1999 (NSW), grants claimants the right to demand, receive, and recover payment from parties liable for the owed amounts. This Act is crucial for contractors, developers, suppliers, and subcontractors, as it allows them to claim progress payments for the work performed or goods and services supplied. In cases of late or non-payment, the Act provides a structured process for claimants to follow. It is important to be aware that the Act imposes strict and time-sensitive requirements that all parties must adhere to in the payment process.
