Understanding the Security of Payment Act
The Building and Construction Industry Security of Payment Act 1999 (QLD) is pivotal in securing the right of contractors, developers, suppliers, and subcontractors to demand, receive, and recover payments for work executed or goods supplied. It provides a structured process for claimants facing late or non-payment issues, helping them maintain cash flow and financial stability in their businesses. The Act enforces strict timelines for payment claims and resolutions, which our team is adept at navigating.
