A rule of construction helps courts to decide what to consider when interpreting language in a contract. The parol evidence rule does not allow introduction of evidence from outside the contract, with certain exceptions.

The area of construction law deals with matters such as infrastructure, housing, planning permissions and construction and engineering. The key to understanding construction law is that it has two main categories: non-contentious and contentious.

The Building Act 1984 is the primary legislation. Its stated purpose is to “secure the health, safety, welfare and convenience of persons in or about buildings and of others who may be affected by buildings or matters connected with buildings”.
