Construction Contracts Amendment Bill
Bill proposes amendments to the Construction Contracts Act 2002,
which sets out default process payment arrangements and a dispute
resolution process. Amendments include changes to the enforcement
process, hindering the scope of contracts covered by the Act and
treating residential and commercial contracts more similarly. The
Bill has been in Parliament for some time, but is now nearing
enactment.
Weathertight Homes Resolution Services Bill
This Bill proposes changes to the Weathertight Homes Resolution
Services Act. It was introduced in February 2015, and submissions
are due on 16 April. The Bill proposes reasonably technical
amendments that will nevertheless be significant for some claimants
to the Weathertight Homes Resolution Service.
