I have a contract which sets out 14 days for client approval of documentation
In the conditions of contract, ’days’ is defined as ’calendar days’
The Contractor’s schedule has used a calendar with public holidays for some of the client approvals, and without public holidays for others.
Clearly I have to go back to the contractor and insist a consistent approach to be used, but which of the two approaches should I request is followed?
Obviously not including public holidays like Xmas within the 14 day approval would favour the client, for whom I am working. But if the standard practise is otherwise, I’ll go with that.
Cheers,
G
