NOTE TO AUTHORS AND READERS:
(A) Unless otherwise indicated, all questions assume (1) a
construction contract between an employer and a contractor; (2)
that the site for the permanent works is in the jurisdiction of the
respondent; and (3) there are no relevant contractual
provisions (or arbitral rules) on the matter in question.
(B) Unless otherwise indicated, all responses should address:
(1) the application of the law of the respondent's jurisdiction
where it is the governing law of the contract (while indicating
which rules cannot be excluded or modified by agreement);
and (2) the application of the law of the respondent's
jurisdiction where a foreign law is the governing law of the
contract. This is to help show which rules are mandatory as a
result of the law of the respondent's jurisdiction governing
the contract and which (if different) are mandatory as a result of
the site being in the respondent's jurisdiction.
