I didn't get it reviewed by a professional body but its beginning to sound like a good idea now...

This is the only extra bit on insurance:
At the start and throughout the term of this Agreement, the Subcontractor shall maintain in force full and comprehensive Insurance Policies.
The Subcontractor shall, at the start of this Agreement and upon each renewal provide The Consultancy with written evidence reasonably acceptable to The Consultancy that the Insurance Policies are current and in force.Last edited by siouxchief; 2 September 2015, 13:47.

Section 4 isn't about insurance at all. It's simply the consultancy saying "If you screw something up, then you're liable, not us".
Of course, this is why you'd want insurance, and I'd presume insurance is specifically mentioned somewhere else in the contract.

Isn't section 4 just talking about PI/PL insurance which you can take out with a number of different providers? Odd it doesn't mention values though.
Have you had it reviewed by QDOS, B&C or any other professional outfit first?

Contract wording help
Hi,
Just been looking at my first contract wording. Could you please let me know if this all sounds okay and in case of point 4 what insurance they are looking for specifically? I have replaced the consultancy name.
Thanks
