Summary Marcus Jacobs QC has again produced a comprehensive exposition of the law relating to security of payments in the 5th edition of this work. The work comprises two broad sections: commentary and legislation. By reference to the New South Wales Building and Construction Industry Security of Payment Act 1999, the commentary explains the judicial treatment of the various sections in the Act. There is also commentary for similar provisions found in the other security of payments legislation in Australia. The 5th edition contains a useful comparative table of sections across all jurisdictions. The legislation part of the text is a convenient collection of the explanatory note, the second reading speech, and the statute and its regulations for each Australian jurisdiction. The text was published on the cusp of the enactment of the Building and Construction Industry Payments Amendment Act 2014 (Qld) and, as such, includes a copy of the Bill, but not the Act. Otherwise, the text is a convenient and up to date resource
