COVID-19 and the Construction Industry

With the support of the Western-India Chapter, SCL-India took the initiative to create a Survey about the impact of coronavirus (COVID-19), force majeure events, and the delivery of services. The Survey has helped us identify current and future legal needs arising from the pandemic and related lockdown measures. The Reporters, Gracious Timothy Dunna and Ronak Desai, created the Survey and prepared the following Report after receiving comments from members of SCL India. SCL-India welcome comments, feedback, and observations concerning the Survey and the Report for inclusion and implementation by SCL-India.
