- HCCT44/2011
The court found the benchmark for materials and workmanship was the neighbouring Nos 26 and 27 works, the '5 or 6 star hotel' phrase was not an incorporated contractual term, the 5% design fee formed part of the contract and was payable, the project was substantially completed by end of December 2010 and the plaintiff was entitled to the contract balance subject to quantified deductions for defects which were assessed by the court rather than wholesale reinstatement; net judgment for the plaintiff was entered after set‑off of counterclaim damages.
