The class is split on this one. We have been receiving CI’s under clause14.3, but then corresponding CE’s issued under clause 61.1, i.e. In accordance with Cl61.1 this is a Compensation Event’. However there is a debate ongoing as to whether the CE notice should say ‘In accordance with 60.1(1), this is a Compensation Event’. Both sound plausible. For me, 61.1 is an obligation and 60.1 states what the CE is, so more siding to 60.1, Cheers.
I agree with you. When a CE occurs the Contractor is ‘obligated’ under 61.1 / 61.2 to notify the compensation event, which is one tick in the box, the second tick in the box is to notify the compensation event type i.e. change to Works Information / Scope 60.1 (1).
