Construction Law & Practice in Hong Kong, 5th Edition seeks to serve those in the construction industry as well as the legal profession, and has been updated to incorporate the changes and solutions adopted for the challenges in the Hong Kong construction industry. 
 
New developments in this edition include: 
  • Security of Payment Bill: Discusses the impact of the Hong Kong Construction Industry Security of Payment Bill, marking significant changes in the legal landscape.

  • Case Discussion: Includes updates on cases illustrating operative principles, NECs and statutory adjudication. Numerous important cases are covered, such as C v D, T v B (Arbitration), Maeda Kensetsu Kogyo Kabushiki Kaisha v Bauer Hong Kong Ltd, and others, focusing on standard forms of contract, liquidated damages, interpretation of contract, certificates and concurrent delays, and more. Other cases on statutory duties affecting the construction industry, such as Secretary for Justice v China Road and Bridge Corp and Competition Commission v W Hing Construction Co Ltd, are also examined.
  • Extended Chapters: Chapters on contract principles, statutory duties, procurement, certificates, money, termination, standard forms of contract, and dispute resolution have been significantly expanded.
