Description
Summary:<p class="AJCEBBodytext" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;">This is a response to Towards Harmonisation of the Construction Industry Security of Payment Legislation: A consideration of the success afforded by the East and West Coast Models in Australia by Jeremy Coggins, Robert Fenwick Elliott and Matthew Bell. Towards Harmonisation is based upon the false premise that the objectives of the East Coast and West Coast models are the same. They are chalk and cheese. Each serves a valuable purpose. Each jurisdiction needs both models.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">&nbsp; </span>A model for a dual process incorporating both the East Coast and the West Coast models will be found in Davenport (2007).</span></p>
