- 2007
[2007] EWHC 49 (QB), 19 January 2007. A dispute over electrical installation works was referred to an adjudicator who found in favour of electrical contractor (B). When mechanical and electrical contractor (I) refused to pay, B applied to enforce the adjudication award. The issue was whether there was a contract based on a letter of intent and if so whether it was in writing for the purposes of the Housing Grants, Construction and Regeneration Act 1996 s107. "Held": application dismissed. The parties did not intend that the letter of intent should have contractual effect and such an agreement did not comply with the 1996 Act s107. Therefore the adjudicator had no jurisdiction and his decision was not enforced.
