520 _aDiscusses collateral warranties, and argues that they are here to stay. Notes that they were originally intended to allow interested parties in a development, but not actually in a contract with contractors or subcontractors, to make claims directly against the latter. Looks at the evolution of collateral warranties over the years. Suggests they may now give beneficiaries rights such as access to warrantor's staff. However, notes that they still involve lengthy, expensive negotiations.
