Provincial Government Contract Conditions




In the event of the contractor for the performance of any work or service being dissatisfied with the decision of the officer in condemning the same, the Superintendent will, upon the written request of the Contractor, made immediately after such decision, and the Superintendent may also, at any time, without such request, summon a Board of Survey to examine any work; and if such Board of Survey shall declare any such work to be inferior in quality to the work contracted for, or otherwise improperly done, the contractor, upon notice thereof, shall immediately replace such work by other satisfactory to the Board of Survey; and in default thereof, the Superintendent, or some officer authorized to procure such work to be replaced in any manner he may think fit, and the contractor shall bear and pay to the Provincial Government all costs, charges, and expenses attendant thereon, as well as any excess of price for the same, together with a sum of money, by way of penalty, equal to one-fourth of such costs, charges, and expenses, and excess of price, all of which are hereby made chargeable on any sum which may be due from the Provincial Government to the contractor.

The tenders (forms of which may be obtained at this office) to contain the names and places of residence, at length, of the persons tendering, and to be signed by two respectable sureties, engaging to become bound in a penalty of £100 for the fulfilment of the contract, if the tender be accepted and no tenders will be received unless upon such forms.

All contract bonds must be signed by the contractor and his sureties before the date of entering upon the contracts.

No person whatever holding any situation of profit or emolument under Her Majesty’s Government of New Zealand, or under the Government of this Province, shall be a party, directly, or indirectly, to any Contract.

FREDK. WHITAKER,
Superintendent.
