The finding of the High Court Judge<br />
Now, in the present case, the learned High Court Judge, on the issue<br />
of liability in negligence, made a finding of mixed law and fact as<br />
follows:<br />
In my considered opinion the long delay in completing the project was<br />
caused or contributed by the 2 nd and 3 rd defendant as:<br />
(a) All the amendments (due to negligence of the defendants)<br />
took time and they affected the completion of Phase 1 of the<br />
project;<br />
(b) The completion of phase 1 of the project was delayed and<br />
the CF was only issued on 4/7/2005 because of the time<br />
taken for the approval of many amended plans and also the<br />
rectification works on works not done according to the<br />
original plans.<br />
