SECG Scotland Payment Abuse Survey |
Introduction
The Specialist Engineering Contractors' Group (SECG) Scotland, which represents the lift and escalator, h&v, plumbing and heating, steelwork and electrical contracting sector, recently met with Paul Wheelhouse MSP, Minister for Business, Innovation and Energy, to discuss the issue of payment abuse.
Following the meeting, the Minister expressed interest in payment security legislation for construction (possibly involving 30 day payments and protection for retention monies) and is keen to obtain examples of payment abuse.
The following survey aims to capture examples of abuse to illustrate our case and the results will be presented to the Minister.
All responses will be kept confidential.
Thanks in advance for your assistance.
