(b) if a variation to the Works originally scheduled (including any applicable plans or specifications) is requested; or

6.8 The Client shall not be entitled to set off against, or deduct from the Price, any sums owed or claimed to be owed to the Client by CSL, nor to withhold payment of any invoice because part of that invoice is in dispute, unless the request for payment by CSL is a claim made under the Construction Contracts Act 2002. 

6.9 Unless otherwise stated the Price does not include GST. In addition to the Price, the Client must pay to CSL an amount equal to any GST CSL must pay for any supply by CSL under this or any other agreement for the sale of the Materials.

8.1 CSL shall be entitled to rely on the accuracy of any plans, specifications and other information provided by the Client.

9.2 The Client acknowledges and agrees that in the event CSL requires access, in order to undertake the Works, to an adjoining or adjacent property or land to the nominated job site, that is not owned by the Client, then it is the Client’s responsibility to gain permission from the landowner to use the above-mentioned property throughout the process or delivering the Works. In the event the landowner denies access or use of the land or property, the Client shall be liable for all costs incurred by CSL in gaining permission to access and/or use the property through any legal process that may be deemed necessary. 

9.3 The Client shall ensure that the correct traffic and pedestrian measures are in place. Failure to do so will result in the Client becoming liable for any costs incurred by CSL. 

10.1 If CSL retains ownership of the Materials under clause 15 then where CSL is supplying Materials only, all risk for the Materials shall immediately pass to the Client on delivery and the Client must insure the Materials on or before delivery.

10.4 The Client warrants that any structures to which the Materials are to be affixed are able to withstand the installation thereof and are of suitable capacity to handle the Materials once installed. If for any reason (including the discovery of asbestos, defective or unsafe structures or risk) that CSL, or CSL employees, reasonably form the opinion that the Client’s premises is not safe for the Works to proceed then CSL shall be entitled to delay the provision 

of the Works (in accordance with clause 7.2) until CSL is satisfied that it is safe for the installation to proceed. 

10.5 Where the Client has supplied materials for CSL to complete the Works, the Client acknowledges that it accepts responsibility for the suitability of purpose, quality, and any faults inherent in those materials.
