Understanding the Construction Contracts Act 2002 - Online Zoom

The Construction Contracts Act 2002 applies to all construction contracts that relate to the carrying out of construction work in New Zealand, whether the contract is in writing, oral, or a mixture of both, and whether it is for commercial or residential construction.

This course, from a practical and ‘hands-on’ point of view, will benefit Clients, Consultants and Contractors wanting to understand the key provisions of this Act, and how it applies to them.

It has four key objectives:

  • To provide enforcement mechanisms to recover any unmade payments
