Adjudication and natural justice

In Project One London Ltd v VMA Services Ltd [2025] EWHC 3304 (TCC) Adrian Williamson KC, sitting as a Deputy Judge of the High Court, held that the claimant was entitled to enforce the decision of an adjudicator and he rejected submissions made on behalf of the defendant that the adjudicator had breached the principles of natural justice. The present case acts as a reminder of the fact that it is no easy task to prove that an adjudicator has breached the principles of natural justice, given the allowance which the courts make for the rough and ready nature of adjudication, the need to produce a decision speedily and the requirement that any breach be shown to be material.
