Opening Remarks were given by Seminar Chairman, Mr. Raymond Chan – Partner, Chan Neo LLP - who then introduced the speaker for the seminar, Ms Audrey Perez, Head of Department QSE & Maintenance, Dragages Singapore Pte Ltd. Audrey presented an informative and thought-provoking update on her talk at the 2008 SCL – Law Society Annual Conference by discussing developments in the Singapore construction industry since 2008, and she also covered the latest landmark court decisions impacting on the construction industry.

 
The presentation was well received, and evoked some thoughtful discussion in the the Q&A session that followed. It was evident from the seminar that construction practicioners are facing a dynamic environment relative to which both construction-related practices and the law are developing, and thus constantly presenting new challenges and opportunities.
