Hudson's Building and Engineering Contracts, 14th South Asian Edition by Atkin Chambers | 2021

Leveraging the practical, commercial, and legal expertise amassed by the authors, the 1st supplement to the 14th edition of Hudson's Building and Engineering Contracts offers an extensive update on the legal aspects and interpretation of construction contracts. Notable developments in 2020, which are addressed in this supplement, pertain to adjudication and insolvency. Bresco v. Lonsdale reaffirmed the right of insolvent companies to engage in adjudication and clarified that the Housing Grants, Construction and Regeneration Act 1996 aligns with the regulations governing asset distribution in insolvency. The Corporate, Insolvency and Governance Act 2020 introduces provisions with both temporary and lasting impacts, and this supplement delves into this subject matter.
