Multiplex lied in witness statements, court told

摘要

Cleveland bridge's counsel this week accused Multiplex directors Matt Stagg and Ashley Muldoon of lying in their witness statements to discredit CBUK. Hugh Tomlinson accused the pair of giving inaccurate witness statements in their submissions to the court. He said they had done so in order to "paint CBUK in a bad light by saying they were dragging their feet" over signing the supplementary agreement. Multiplex alleges that Cleveland Bridge put off signing the agreement, which was to give a new fixed price for the remainder of the steelwork, in order to extend its temporary cost-plus arrangement on the project.
