Understanding the Security of Payment Act

The Building and Construction Industry Security of Payment Act 1999 (TAS) ensures that contractors, suppliers, and subcontractors get paid for their work in a timely manner. It offers a straightforward process to recover payments, helping to avoid costly litigation and lengthy disputes. Strict timelines and compliance with the Act’s procedures are essential for success.
