https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=160517 A clause authorising only assessment or quantification of liquidated damages does not by itself make the underlying dispute on breach, delay, or liability an excepted matter. The contract here contained no specific final decision-maker for determining whether the supplier was in breach or whether delay was attributable to it, so that dispute remained arbitrable. The special conditions also did not override the general conditions, because the liquidated damages provision in clause 62 expressly referred back to the general conditions for rate and mode of quantification. The contractual dispute over delay and liability for liquidated damages was therefore fit for arbitration. en-us Mon, 15 Sep 2008 00:00:00 +0530 Wed, 04 Jun 2014 16:07:00 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=160517 A clause authorising only assessment or quantification of liquidated damages does not by itself make the underlying dispute on breach, delay, or liability an excepted matter.
