Jeremy Glover, in a paper prepared for the 13 th Adjudication Update Seminar, considers the different ways in which disputes can be managed and thereby avoided. The paper includes a discussion about how the NEC form of contract has adopted a form of early warning procedure designed to help minimise actual disputes and also looks at some of the alternatives to statutory adjudication including Project Mediation and the Adjudication Board.
Victoria Russell provided a case law update paper and talk to the members of the South East branch of the Chartered Institute of Arbitrators discussing the most recent decisions relating to adjudication enforcement and arbitration.
