CECA Wales and Diales will be hosting their first webinar on “limitations of liability clauses” as part of their new partnership on legal support and advice for CECA Wales members.
This first topic is a particularly contentious matter and can cause significant difficulties when poorly considered and applied. This can be neatly summed up in the following quote from “Trust and Productivity” : The private sector construction playbook (November 2022).
“The inappropriate apportioning of risk can be a major cause of project failure. This can be avoided by early engagement, by transferring risk at the right time and by not saddling suppliers with onerous liabilities”

Given that this is such a contentious issue we will also be opening out this webinar to construction clients from across Wales in the hope that a collaborative approach will lead to a more mature approach to risk and liabilities on future contracts. Please let me know if you would like me to extend this invitation to any clients that you regularly work with.
