STATUTORY DISPUTE RESOLUTION The British perspective
Journal Title: ROMANIAN CONSTRUCTION LAW REVIEW - Year 2016, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
This is a paper given to the Romanian Society of Construction Law at their inaugural conference from 19 to 21 March 2015. The purpose of this paper is to introduce the participants at the confer-ence to statutory dispute resolution in the United Kingdom. Statutory adjudication, which was introduced by the Housing Grants, Construction and Regeneration Act 1996 and came in to force for all construction contracts in the United Kingdom entered into after 1 May 1998 has been a highly successful method of resolving disputes in the construction industry. The author is someone who has been heavily involved in adjudication almost from the very outset it is interesting to see how the system has developed over time. In this paper I introduce the delegates to adjudication and would strongly recommend that they give consideration to it as a way and means of resolving dis-putes in the construction industry quickly. I also look briefly at dispute boards and how in the UK dispute boards can be compatible with the requirements of the Housing Grants, Construction and Regeneration Act 1996 (as recently amended in 2011).
