520			_aA recent case "St Andrews Bay Development Ltd v H B G Management Ltd" (CSOH 20 March 2003, [2003] CILL 2016 dealt with whether an adjudicator can delay the delivery of the decision pending payment of their fees. St Andrews (A) had employed H B G (H) to build a leisure complex. The arising disputes were referred to an adjudicator. After reaching a decision the adjudicator decided to withhold their decision until their fees were paid. A contested the decision as they believed it had been issued after the date it was due and argued that a decision reached but not communicated is no decision at all. A applied to have the decision set aside, but this was refused by the appeal court on the grounds that this fundamental error should not nullify the entire decision.
