CONTRACT CONDITIONS
AUCKLAND UNIVERSITY BUILDINGS AN UNUSUAL POSITION (Per United Press Association.) AUCKLAND, May 22. An unusual position has arisen in regard to tenders for the new University building, the architects, Messrs Lippingcoat and Bilson, a Melbourne firm, having attached to the specifications conditions foreign to those obtaining throughout New Zealand. The builders and contractors placed their views before the architects and the University Council, but were unable to get general conditions substituted for the new ones. The Builders’ Association executive adopted a resolution that builders be advised not to tender for the University buildings under the conditions at present attached, but to make their tenders subject to the general conditions of contract at present existing between the New Zeeland Institute of Architects and the New Zealand Builders’ Federation, as agreed upon at a conference at Wellington in February 1910.
