NEC, adjudication and natural justice

A recent decision on whether an adjudication decision should be enforced provides a good example of the practical issues that can come up when operating the NEC form of contract. This is what the court had to address in Premier Modular Ltd v Maidstone And Tunbridge Wells NHS Trust [2026] EWHC 1404 (TCC) where the adjudication concerned an entitlement to an extension of time, based on what was the correct compensation event, was it notified on time and what was the Accepted Programme to be used for assessing delay?

Contractual Controls Register: what the new Regulations mean for your deals

On 8 June 2026, the Government made the Provision of Information (Contractual Control) (Registered Land) Regulations 2026 which form the statutory framework for the new Contractual Controls Register. Contractual controls are rights that give a party the ability to control how and when land is transferred, without conferring legal ownership. They are widely used, particularly by developers and land promoters. The register, which is due to be launched by the Land Registry on 6 April 2027, is designed to increase transparency in the property market.

When a company is preparing for a sale, transaction-based incentives can be an effective way to recognize and retain key employees. In practice, these incentives generally fall into two categories—equity and non-equity (cash)—and the right approach depends on several factors, including timing, the employee population you want to reward, how awards will be valued and paid, and whether Section 280G may be implicated.
