Abstract
A recent case (4 April, 2000) to look at the question of valuation under civil engineering conditions in the presence of a mistake has been heard in the Court of Appeal in England. The case is noteworthy because it sets out how the court will balance the often separate issues of mistake and rerating. It could have implications in determining the effect to be given to mistakes in tender documents under other conditions of contract as well. Professor Arthur Mclnnis provides some insights.
