OFT: councils can sue guilty contractors

摘要

The director of the Office of Fair Trading's investigation in tender malpractice in construction has given the green light to councils considering suing contractors over potential losses from tenders that were subject to cover pricing.rnSimon Williams (pictured) said the OFT was not advising public sector clients to blacklist builders or take other civil action, but that it was "understandable" if they did take that route.
