Chair of Construction Law Committee
Marc Hanson, Ashurst LLP

The CLLS Construction Committee acts as a forum for construction lawyers working in the City of
London to meet and consider topical areas of law relating to the construction industry. All areas
of construction law are catered for, including litigation, drafting, PFI/PPP work and international
and domestic projects work. Committee members include many leading practitioners from private
practice, as well as leading in-house construction lawyers from major contractors and consultants.
The Committee has been very active in recent years and has produced a standard form of novation
agreement (having regard to the Blyth decision), a standard letter of intent and a detailed
response to the DTI's consultation on changes to the construction provisions of the Housing Grants
Act 1996. These documents are freely downloadable via the links below. All members of the CLLS,
whether individual members or members of the Society through their firms, are invited to get
involved in the activities of the Committee. For further information, please contact the
Chairman.
