Article summary

This week's edition of Construction weekly highlights includes the announcement of the Chancellor of the Exchequer’s Autumn Statement, a case in which the Technology and Construction Court (TCC) considered whether an arbitration clause in an NEC 3 contract required the parties to refer disputes concerning the validity of an adjudicator’s decision to arbitration (Northumbrian Water v Doosan Enpure), publication of secondary legislation that will bring further provisions of the Building Safety Act 2022 (BSA 2022) into force, and the launch of a consultation on the Building Safety Levy by the Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (DLUHC).
