Today, May 2, 2019, the Legislative Assembly of Saskatchewan approved third reading of The Builders’ Lien (Prompt Payment) Amendment Act, 2018, passing the bill into law.

This bill is the result of three years of hard work by the Saskatchewan Construction Association and its industry partners, particularly those of Prompt Payment Saskatchewan. The passage of this bill makes Saskatchewan the third province in Canada with legislation in place.

This is a significant step towards improving basic business fairness for thousands of contractors and the construction sector in the province.
