I refer the Minister to the Small Business Commissioner’s report into the Construction Subcontractor Investigation, page 57, and I ask will the Minister establish a formal investigation process within Building Management and Works with the purpose of investigating claims of non-payment made by subcontractors, which may include a requirement for proof of payment to match with any submitted statutory declarations?
