Question:
Xavier has a contract to build a new hall at the Orford primary school. He has factored in costs, driving time form Hobart to Orford and labour costs. One month into the contract the road from Hobart to Orford is closed due to a landslide and the only other way through is via a route north then south which adds 2 hours to the journey each way. Atier falling far behind the work schedule on the hall, due to working shorter days to accommodate the travel, Xavier rents a home for the construction team to stay down at Orford during the week and he also pays for their food whilst away from their homes. The extra costs are making cash flow very tight and Xavier wonders if he might argue frustration of the contract so it might be declared void. Advise Xavier
6. What would you advise Xavier if the state government placed a travel ban on all Tasmanian residents prohibiting them from traveling more than 5 kilometres from their homes in an effort to curb the spread of an invasive beetle through the state and onto farming land. The ban is imposed for a minimum of six months until September and the hall is due to be finished by August.
