🌇😊Many thanks to my @melblawschool library colleagues for their fantastic work in putting together our new construction law research guide - a 'one stop shop' for @unimelb staff and students in accessing our extensive online and print resources. https://t.co/vlsPwPxFKk

Labour have promised action on remediation but we have yet to see what this means. Meanwhile, @Lees_Martina reports on the very very long wait and emotional and financial price https://t.co/K96ykV6gqO

Significant regulatory reforms for Victoria’s building industry on their way… https://t.co/H6xL1fbb5t

I spoke with Trevor Thomas on “Inside Commercial Law,” the podcast of the Melbourne Centre for Commercial Law, about the HCA’s recent decision in Cessnock City Council. Thanks, Wayne Jocic and @MelbConstrucLaw for inviting us to speak. https://t.co/jnP5GG3Ghs

The High Court will tomorrow hear the appeal in Pafburn Pty Ltd & Anor v The Owners - Strata Plan No 84674

💸If you’re ready for a discussion about tax reform that illuminates rather than infuriates, enjoy this podcast featuring my amazing @MelbLawSchool colleague @AusTaxProf Miranda Stewart. https://t.co/wdy7A35tF6 via @ABCaustralia

🏚️I must say I am particularly grateful to Senior Member Edquist for his detailed engagement with the Stone factors (see [125]-[141]): it is, with respect, exactly what I was hoping for when I wrote my 2022 @SCL_UK Hudson Prize paper on those factors https://t.co/CL7YqCN3qW

🏚️Thank you @minterellison for this note bringing attention to Whitaker v FP & HS Keogh Pty Ltd [2024] VCAT 708: important consideration of Stone v Chappell (2017 SASCFC) reasonableness factors in awarding rectification damages for defective building work

🌇Thank you, ⁦@katelamble⁩ and panellists: a superbly insightful discussion of the Grenfell Tower Inquiry report. So much for us in construction and regulation to learn including, as you note, whether profit and safety can be effectively balanced.

The Grenfell Inquiry report isn't just a story of a complacent government. Read it carefully and a story emerges of one which routinely covers up the truth https://t.co/Sqc1NxJKmY

Episode 204 - the final episode of The Grenfell Tower Inquiry Podcast is out now We talk to @PeteApps, expert witness Beryl Menzies and @HRRBFireSafety about the findings & hear from bereaved and survivors - including how they met Keir Starmer this week https://t.co/AKjSxYqq4D

A reminder of a report I did in June: there are millions and millions of square metres of the ACM used on Grenfell on buildings globally - much of it in jurisdictions which have done nothing to look for it post-fire https://t.co/wL1AK4LjFe

A passing thought that there are people out there who will be reading the inquiry report and quietly knowing they were on the right side of history, even though it made them unpopular, cost them opportunities and saw their views dismissed. If faced with the choice, be like them

🌏Ch 112 Grenfell Tower Inquiry final report summarises reforms around the world - including the Australian programs following the Shergold-Weir report and 2014 Lacrosse cladding fire in Melbourne. The issues are global: solutions need to be as well. https://t.co/t3qlRN5Fsz

Thank you @PeteApps for this early summary of the landmark Grenfell Tower Inquiry final report. It immediately shows the prescience of your Show Me the Bodies book. Much to digest for everyone interested in building regulation around the world, including for us in Australia.

The final report from Grenfell Tower inquiry found the disaster was the culmination of “decades of failure” by governments and others in the construction industry. It sets out a ‘path to disaster’ stretching back to the early 1990s and criticises organisations at every level.

Tomorrow will be a landmark moment. At 11am the final report from the Grenfell Tower Inquiry will be released. I’m helping out with the news coverage all day, but there will be a 204th, and final, episode of the Grenfell Tower Inquiry Podcast on Friday https://t.co/8WzBAmJDnz

The Phase 2 report will be published tomorrow at 11am following an introduction by the Inquiry Panel.

Big step this - govt confirms it will bring forward evacuation plans for residents with disabilities, and provide funding. Was a major recommendation of first phase of the Grenfell Inquiry, rejected by Conservatives https://t.co/mu8U02lEYK

Super interesting, thx for posting. @MelbConstrucLaw @atmesisb So much law happens behind confidential settlements that the boundaries don't get publicly tested.

The game is up for corporate fraudsters: Prof Elise Bant on the Aust High Court's consideration of statutory unconscionability in Productivity Partners Pty Ltd v ACCC; Wills v ACCC [2024] HCA 27 https://t.co/yKjak3T1YP
