71. The Pilot project to facilitate payment to enterprises that are parties to public construction work contracts and related public subcontracts (chapter C-65.1, r. 8.01) applies to all public construction contracts and related public subcontracts, to the extent that such contracts or subcontracts arise from an infrastructure project listed in Schedule I, unless the manner in which the contract or subcontract is to be carried out does not allow for the application of a monthly payment schedule. Despite the sixth paragraph of section 24.3 of the Act respecting contracting by public bodies (chapter C-65.1), the terms and conditions prescribed in the pilot project are applicable to a contract or subcontract referred to in the first paragraph until the infrastructure project from which it arises ends, provided the contract was entered into not later than 11 December 2025. The public contracts referred to in the first paragraph are those granted by a public body referred to in section 4 of the Act respecting contracting by public bodies.
