The completion date was validly varied by mutual agreement to 11 November 2008 (evidenced by construction programs, communications and a meeting), so no liquidated damages were payable; the defendant was liable for specified defective works and the court quantified reasonable rectification costs (HK$42,550) but the defendant was entitled to contractual payments (including HK$13,500 under the Design Agreement and various VO sums), yielding a net judgment for the defendant of HK$52,851.82; costs awarded by departure from usual rule (order nisi for 75% in favour of defendant).
