Contract – Construction. The claimant had undertaken work on a project, pursuant to a contract with the defendant for the provision of environmental training. The judge dismissed the claimant's claim for unpaid invoices, holding, inter alia, that it was a contractual requirement that sufficient evidence be provided of the actual content of the workshop and that evidence had not been provided, in particular, no presentation slides had been produced. The Court of Appeal, Civil Division, in allowing the claimant's appeal, held that the material provided had complied with the workshop requirements. Further, if the judge had been intending to say that there had been a contractual obligation to provide slides, the present court disagreed.
