Direct payments to subcontractors
Brewer, G.
Direct payments to subcontractors - 2001 - Contract Journal 411(6357) 12 December 2001, 19(1) .
A recent judgement by Lord Justice Brown absolving Saint Gobain Glass of any liability to pay the subcontractor Actionstrength after the liquidation of Inglens, with whom they had a contract, makes direct payments to subcontractors even more problematic. Using the Statute of Frauds 1677 he decided that Action Strength's arguments would be unenforceable by virtue of s4 of the Statute not having been set down and signed in a document and signed by Saint Gobain Glass (see also Abs64625 and X116027).
