11:00 am – 11:45 am Dealing with the Impact of the MCO on Commercial Contracts
About this talk
What impact has the MCO had on your business’ ability to fulfil its contractual obligations? Have others been forced to breach your contracts? The movement control order (MCO) currently set to last for at least six weeks has made it extremely difficult for many businesses to keep afloat and honour their contracts. Many are just waiting, but what will happen post-MCO? Our speakers will identify important clauses in a commercial agreement that may assist in the re-negotiation or dealing with non-performance in obligations of parties. The talk will be delivered over video conference using Zoom.us. You can either view the talk from your web browser or download the Zoom app.
