Can the JCT form of agreement be replaced with a cover contract/articles of agreement incorporating it by reference only? If affirmative, what are the pros and cons of using this approach? It seems to me that it will be difficult to manage the contract without the ability to cross-refer to the original clauses.
If the Articles of Agreement enclose the JCT together with any relevant documents, prelims, schedule of amendments, etc, is it sufficient to have the Articles of Agreement signed only?
