Unpacking the case history
Cottam, Guy
Unpacking the case history - 2007 - Construction News (7026) 12 July 2007, 24(1) .
Looks at why adjudication is being used in situations where it was never intended, such as complex disputes and final accounts, and highlights the problems this is causing with the Scheme for Construction Contracts (SCC). A key point is that the SCC does not allow an adjudicator to consider more than one dispute at a time. Discusses this issue with reference to "Bothma (trading as DAB Builders) v Mayhaven Healthcare" ([2007] EWCA Civ 527, L139846). Notes that under the SCC, there must be a link between all the decisions required of the adjudicator.
