Subcontractors launch final offensive over payment reforms

摘要

Specialist groups have begun a final push to persuade MPs and ministers to introduce reforms to payment and adjudication rules in the Construction Act. The government is to introduce a bill amending the act in the next session of parliament. The National Specialist Contractors Council has placed advertorials in The Monitor the in-house magazine for MPs, and the Specialist Engineering Contractors Group is to lobby the 200 MPs who signed an early day motion in 2005 calling for payment provisions to be made law.
