WHAT'S THE DAMAGE?

摘要

ADJUDICATION, a way of resolving disputes quickly to avoid major delays during a project, was brought in by the Construction Act in 1998.Adjudications are mandatory and have a timetable of 28 days from start to finish. Critics argue that this means 'rough justice'for parties with a genuine grievance that are unable to marshall the facts and arguments within the restricted timetable.
