The Contractor can recover a delay by acceleration. Can this still be recognised under R21?

The Contractor can recover a delay to planned Completion by acceleration, increased resources or adjusting the programme. Can this still be recognised under R21?

No. R21 under Clause 91.7 will only apply if there is no reasonable means by which the Contractor can complete the works on the works. If a delay can be recovered by acceleration etc. then the event is not grounds for termination under R21.
