Q1. The contractor applies for Extension of Time (EOT) before his contract completion period expires. The Contract Administrator does not respond and the original contract completion date is passed. One month later, the Contract Administrator issues a V.O. for additional works to the Contractor. The Contractor refuses to carry out the V.O. works. What can the Contract Administrator do in this situation?
Q2. A Consultant has carried out substantial works on a project and the Employer encounters financial difficulties. He suspends the project.
