Considers whether notices are a condition precedent to entitlement to extensions of time. Explores the issues surrounding extension of time provisions in construction contracts and discusses the recent case "Steria Ltd v Sigma Ltd" ([2008] CILL 2544). In "Steria" the judge found that the ordinary language of the clause in the subcontract made the right to an extension of time conditional upon notification and in this case the clause operates as a condition precedent.
