Beware Remediation Contribution Orders
The Upper Tribunal has dismissed the appeal in Vista Tower, in which the First Tier Tribunal gave a very wide construction to s 124 of the Building Safety Act 2022. That section gives the power to a FTT to order a company or companies to make a contribution to the costs of carrying out remedial work to a building with defects. The FTT made a RCO for over £13m, against 75 separate companies, all on a joint and several basis. The Upper Tribunal has dismissed all the appeals against that Order.
Mark Warwick KC was instructed by Bude Nathan Iwanier in the above case.
