Plaintiffs must plead precise dates of the acts or omissions relied on; latent-defect causes must fall within ten years of the relevant cut-off date to avoid s393(2) Building Act 2004; certain claims tied to the Council requisition of 4 April 1997 (stucco not extending 50mm below floor/ground levels) are not statute-barred; on the present material the Court will not strike out the claims or enter summary judgment and will require amended pleadings and further argument to fix the limitation cut-off date.
