Date & Venue 7:00 pm – 8:30 pm Tuesday 3 September 2013
Room 1207, 12/F Wing On Centre, 111 Connaught Road Central, Sheung Wan, Hong Kong
Details If Government's current plans bear fruit, Hong Kong's security of payment legislation will come into force in 2015 or 2016
following a consultation process due to begin over the coming months. Security of payment legislation in other countries has
followed a number of different models and how far-reaching it will be in Hong Kong is not yet clear. Whatever its final form it
will have a major impact on the Hong Kong construction industry.
This seminar will review the experience of other countries and examine the likely options for Hong Kong.
