AVB : Why we shall use this for a Platform for Retention Reform
Ad Valorem are proposing to promote Retention Reform on this Blog as a Flagship Topic and Subject Matter, right at the same time as the UK comes out of Lockdown 2.0 and into the 3 tiered system from 2nd December 2020 and beyond. We explicitly believe with full conviction, that for those National House Builders / Developers & Main Contractors whom are projecting record Sales, Profits and Cash Reserves during 2020 their must come Responsibility to those whom have enabled this financial windfall ie their Sub Contractors by radical and hitherto unprecedented steps such as: Retention Reform and the release of: 1. ALL long outstanding Retention Monies held from Completed Projects, 2. Agreement to Release 50% of all current Retention held, 3. To Cap Retention @ 1.50% upon All Sub Contracts over £ 250,000 and with All Sub Contracts under the Gross Value of £ 250,000 to be NOT to withhold Retention for anything longer than a period of 6 Calendar Months from Completion of the Sub Contract Works on Site.
