Resumen

This article considers the success of the two distinct construction industry payment legislative models operating in Australia ? ?East Coast? and ?West Coast? ? in achieving their objective of improving cash flow throughout the construction industry. Success parameters are identified by the authors ? namely: the levels of justice afforded by the legislation, the administrative and legal burden generated by the legislation, and the impact of the legislation on the relationships between the contracting parties ? which are used as a basis to discuss and compare the performances of the East and West Coast models. It is concluded that the West Coast model provides a more just dispute resolution process, generates less administrative and legal burden, and is more conducive towards establishing positive relationships between contracting parties. However, it is recognised that there is a need for more data to be gathered from construction industry stakeholders before any firm recommendations can start to be made as to the most appropriate conceptual framework and detail for a harmonised approach.
