-----subcontractors can be in a vulnerable position, which is the point. I stress again for people who have an interest in this that the Construction Contracts Act applies to contracts in the private sector. It is not just the public sector. This applies across the board in the entire State and is not confined. People who are working in the private sector in building etc. have the same rights. It is not just for public sector contracts. It is important for people to understand this.
