          <inserted>Page 32 of the Small Business Commissioner's annual report outlines the number and monetary amount of claims versus the number and monetary amount of awards under the Building and Construction Security of Payment Act 2009 adjudication process. This adjudication process is conducted by an independent adjudicator appointed by an authorised nominated authority who are required to report their process outcomes to the Small Business Commissioner. The Small Business Commissioner advises that the adjudication process is an independent one and the adjudicator makes a determination after considering all of the relevant documents presented. The Commissioner advises that some claims may not be due and payable or not within the contractual terms.</inserted>
