We are all aware of the Statue of Limitations with regard to product defects liability. Would CIF be opposed to making directors of construction companies and building supplier companies liable? Phoenix companies are a huge characteristic of what goes on in the construction sector. It is a huge feature of what has happened in Donegal and across the country with regard to concrete supply, as well as for those building. Would the CIF oppose proposals to make directors of companies operating in the construction sector liable, effectively closing off the option of a company that has gone insolvent no longer being liable?
