[2018] SGHC 142; [2018] 3 SLR 648
Key Principle
Where a construction sub-contract incorporates the Building and Construction Industry Security of Payment Act and does not separately define 'day', the statutory definition of 'day' (which excludes public holidays) governs the contractual payment-response and adjudication timelines, and an adjudication application made out of time on the correct computation may be set aside.
