Watch NZS 3910:2023 Conditions of Contract (secondary summaries; DZ draft) on your own jobs.

A clause in the table turns on a fact your jobs already record: a date, a notice, a record kept. Demiton reads that fact from the register and tells the person who signs off before the window shuts. Missing one costs what the If missed column says.

What this page is, and is not.

It is the clause text this library holds for this document, with the window and the consequence. It is not legal advice, and it is not a substitute for reading the document you signed.

No library of law is complete, and Demiton never says this one is. An obligation the library does not hold, and you did not add, is not protected. You can add your own to any job.
