On January 8, 2010 the Sejm adopted an amendment to the Civil Law which introduces changes to the provisions relating to construction works. The changes are to counteract events when investors and construction contractors fail to pay remuneration due for works performed by contractors and subcontractors, and in particular small and medium entrepreneurs. The changes authorise contractor and subcontractors to demand a security be granted which would guarantee punctual payment of remuneration agreed under the strictly defined contracts for construction works.
