What effect has its formal adoption into the Civil Procedure Rules had on whether you will follow the Dilapidations Protocol?


At the recent RICS Building Surveyors Conference an interesting discussion took place on the effectiveness of both the RICS Dilapidations Protocol and its more formal relationship with the Civil Procedure Rules.
The consensus was that it was too early to tell BUT some interesting responses to a survey on the Protocol confirmed that, the adoption meant it was more likely that the Protocol would be followed, nearly 86% of surveyors follow the spirit or the strict detail of the regime, nearly 95% of Surveyors thought that the regime made it no different or more likely of a settlement before Court.
We believe it brings rigour, greater professionalism and is in both Landlords and tenants interest. 
How about you?
