While immediately felt in our industry, there is a serious risk to Nova Scotia\u2019s competitiveness long-term if we do not take action to fix the issue now.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Over the last several years, the construction industry has witnessed a very disturbing trend. Delinquent payment in the industrial, commercial, and institutional (ICI) sectors, which employ over 35,000 people and contributes $6 billion in revenue to our economy, is producing detrimental results for construction firms in our industry.<\/p>\n<p>Delinquent payments are hurting our economy and continues to worsen. Every year, 35-40 construction-related companies go bankrupt, resulting in 700-800 jobs lost, and these impacts are increasing at an alarming rate. Companies cannot invest in hiring workers, provide training and most importantly, offer a safe place for their employees to work.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>The Construction Association of Nova Scotia continues to survey its members to solicit feedback on prompt payment. Here are some highlights from a recent survey:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>66% of respondents indicated that delayed payments are occurring most or all of the time on their projects.<\/li>\n<li>75% believe that the right legal framework does not exist to improve timeliness of payments.<\/li>\n<li>90% indicate that delayed payment increases the cost of doing business.<\/li>\n<li>54% indicate that delayed payment reducing their ability to bid work and grow their business.<\/li>\n<li>75% indicate that delayed payment increases the cost of project delivery.<\/li>\n<li>74% agree or strongly agree that if paid in a timelier manner, their firm would expand operations\/ grow their firm; while 65% indicate they would hire more people.<\/li><\/ul>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once regulatory and adjudication framework for prompt payment is in place, it will:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Improve the movement of money in our economy.<\/li>\n<li>Increase fairness and transparency.<\/li>\n<li>Increase efficiency and productivity.<\/li>\n<li>Lower the cost of construction projects, public and private.<\/li>\n<li>Reduce the burden on our judicial system.<\/li>\n<li>Drive investment, employment, training, innovation, and purchase of equipment (ie. apprentices).<\/li>\n<li>Increase competition and a number of bidders on public work.<\/li>\n<li>Allow contractors to bid more work.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The provincial government has made a commitment to produce regulatory and adjudication framework for Nova Scotian companies. In discussions with the province, three potential adjudication models have been presented. CANS has advocated for the introduction of a short-term adjudication framework modelled after Saskatchewan, in anticipation of a national adjudication model.<\/p>\n<p>As of early October 2022, the file is currently sitting with Nova Scotia&#8217;s Department of Justice. They have indicated they will have final adjudication framework in place by Fall 2022 but we have seen no movement.<\/p>\n<div title=\"Page 2\">\n<div>\n<div>\n<p><strong>We are asking that provincial
