520 _aDiscusses "John Doyle Construction Ltd v Laing Management (Scotland) Ltd" (CSIH, [2004] BLR 295-307(13) a judgment which reviewed the Outer House judgment (CSOH, [2002] BLR 393). Gives further guidance on the subject of global claims and concurrent causes of delay and loss and expense. Highlights that it may be possible to identify a causal link between particular events for which the employer is responsible and individual items of loss. Also notes if such events can be described as the dominant cause of an item of loss this would be sufficient to establish liability. Further establishes that even if it cannot be said that events for which the employer is responsible are the dominant cause of loss, it may be possible to apportion the loss between the causes.
