31.4 has nothing to do with the mistakes in the landowner-ppc contract. it's the point about the case law which says that unfair contract terms should be highlighted.

£95. That's about it for loss of earnings.Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .
