Assesses the implications of the Human Rights Act for the construction industry: provides an overview of what the new rules will mean for construction disputes and procedures; considers whether carrying out a human rights audit will become a standard part of the planning procedure; contends that any hint of coercion in an ADR procedure will give rise to a human rights defence; looks at the effect on PFI, suggesting there may be increased risks for prison and hospital work.
