I'd like the job of naming Acts of Parliament......!
Anyway, as an update to a previous Blog, The Local Democracy, Economic Development and Construction Act 2009 contains a substantial number of provisions in the broad areas of local democracy and involvement, local authority governance and audit, boundary and electoral change, local and regional economic development and construction contracts. It received Royal Assent on 12 November 2009. Part 8 of the Act amends the Housing Grants, Construction and Regeneration Act 1996 to improve payment practices and dispute resolution in the construction industry. The new Act is apparently to be in force from 1 October this year and NEC drafters are busy finishing off necessary amendments to the applicable NEC3 Contracts and these will be available during September 2011.
