Tomorrow (13th May 2014) I will be talking for the RICS in Sydney. The topic is Security of Payment – Moving towards Impartiality.

Justice McDougall will be talking first, and I was slightly dismayed to read an advance copy of his paper, since he has said pretty much everything there is to be said about the current law of Australia on this topic.

So I will take a different tack, and talk about how principles of evolution might help us understand what has happened, and why, and what we might do about it.
