CIC Publish Collateral Warranty Contracts!

The Construction Industry Council have published new consultant collateral warranties for funders and purchasers/tenants of commercial or industrial development.

These new forms are long overdue. Standard forms were published some ten or more years ago and the CIC warranties take into account changes in law and drafting practices since then. The format will be familiar to consultants and clients, and they can be used alongside the JCT warranties for contractors and subcontractors.
The forms can be used by any construction consultant agreeing to provide a collateral warranty, and where the law is that of England and Wales or of Scotland.
The contracts have been published in sets of five with guidance notes. For further information and order forms please go tohttp://www.cic.org.uk/services/publicationsCIC.shtml#Collateralwarranties
or contact Publications Construction Industry Council, at Publications@cic.org.uk or 020 7399 7400.
