He says that the Danish Building and Construction Arbitration Board has not yet announced it.<\/p>\n<h2>DKK 625m just a provisional requirement<\/h2>\n<p>Nor is the DKK 500 million plus VAT claim on Inabensa final, and it can be raised or downgraded as the government gets an overview of how expensive the construction will end up amounting to.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We do not expect the amount to be downgraded,&#8221; says J\u00f8rn-Orla Bornhardt.<\/p>\n<p>He says that part of the claim is due to other construction contractors being delayed due to Inabensa\u2019s mistakes.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Claims are forthcoming against the <secret text=\"the Danish state\">owner<\/secret>, and so we reserve the right to get this covered at Inabensa,&#8221; says the project manager.<\/p>\n<p>The Danish Building and Property Agency announced in November 2017 that, if it was up to them, the<a href=\"https:\/\/uniavisen.dk\/bygningsstyrelsen-sender-kaemperegning-videre-til-universitetet\/\"> University of Copenhagen should pay DKK 450 million of the expected additional cost<\/a>. According to the news site Politiken, this corresponds to an extra DKK 32 million annually in extra rental costs.<\/p>\n<h2>Unclear whether UCPH is to pay extra bill<\/h2>\n<p>UCPH has refused to pay for the extra costs on the Niels Bohr Building. And the case has therefore again raised the controversy over the government rental scheme, which has faults and delays in state construction projects being paid for by the tenants, like universities, rather than the owners, the Building and Property Agency. In a financial sense, it is free for the Danish Building and Property Agency to exceed its budgets, and this is also what has happened in recent years.<\/p>\n<p>Shortly before Christmas, Minister for Higher Education and Research S\u00f8ren Pind (V) was in <a href=\"https:\/\/uniavisen.dk\/en\/ucph-still-risks-huge-bill-for-niels-bohr-building\/\">consultation in parliament to answer question<\/a>s about the delayed construction, and about who would bear the extra costs. S\u00f8ren Pind gave no promises that the University of Copenhagen would avoid an extra bill but said: &#8220;It is a concern for me, that this case should have as few negative consequences for the university as possible. The thing we most want to avoid is an increase in rent for UCPH.\u201d<br \/>\n<!-- end of module 1 --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The government hopes to have part of its expected extra costs for the Niels Bohr Building recovered from the Spanish contractor Inabensa.

He says that the Danish Building and Construction Arbitration Board has not yet announced it.<\/p>\n<h2>DKK 625m just a provisional requirement<\/h2>\n<p>Nor is the DKK 500 million plus VAT claim on Inabensa final, and it can be raised or downgraded as the government gets an overview of how expensive the construction will end up amounting to.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We do not expect the amount to be downgraded,&#8221; says J\u00f8rn-Orla Bornhardt.<\/p>\n<p>He says that part of the claim is due to other construction contractors being delayed due to Inabensa\u2019s mistakes.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Claims are forthcoming against the <secret text=\"the Danish state\">owner<\/secret>, and so we reserve the right to get this covered at Inabensa,&#8221; says the project manager.<\/p>\n<p>The Danish Building and Property Agency announced in November 2017 that, if it was up to them, the<a href=\"https:\/\/uniavisen.dk\/bygningsstyrelsen-sender-kaemperegning-videre-til-universitetet\/\"> University of Copenhagen should pay DKK 450 million of the expected additional cost<\/a>. According to the news site Politiken, this corresponds to an extra DKK 32 million annually in extra rental costs.<\/p>\n<h2>Unclear whether UCPH is to pay extra bill<\/h2>\n<p>UCPH has refused to pay for the extra costs on the Niels Bohr Building. And the case has therefore again raised the controversy over the government rental scheme, which has faults and delays in state construction projects being paid for by the tenants, like universities, rather than the owners, the Building and Property Agency. In a financial sense, it is free for the Danish Building and Property Agency to exceed its budgets, and this is also what has happened in recent years.<\/p>\n<p>Shortly before Christmas, Minister for Higher Education and Research S\u00f8ren Pind (V) was in <a href=\"https:\/\/uniavisen.dk\/en\/ucph-still-risks-huge-bill-for-niels-bohr-building\/\">consultation in parliament to answer question<\/a>s about the delayed construction, and about who would bear the extra costs. S\u00f8ren Pind gave no promises that the University of Copenhagen would avoid an extra bill but said: &#8220;It is a concern for me, that this case should have as few negative consequences for the university as possible. The thing we most want to avoid is an increase in rent for UCPH.\u201d<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"ArticleEnd"},{"acf_fc_layout":"Newsletter","lang_select":"Dansk","identifier":"Newsletter","headline":"Receive a weekly newsletter in your inbox","button_text":"Tilmeld nu","class":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"Banner","img":false,"url":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"OtherStories","headline":"","hand_picked_posts":false,"references":false,"category":false,"theme":false,"number_of_posts":"4","style":"default"}],"expression":{"term_id":15,"name":"News Article","slug":"news_article","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":15,"taxonomy":"expression","description":"","parent":0,"count":11491,"filter":"raw"},"enable_comments":true,"align_content":"alignleft","feature_color":""},"taxonomyData":{"category":[{"term_id":44,"name":"Campus","slug":"campus","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":44,"taxonomy":"category","description":"","parent":0,"count":1547,"filter":"raw"}],"post_tag":[{"term_id":223,"name":"Buildings","slug":"buildings","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":223,"taxonomy":"post_tag","description":"","parent":0,"count":9,"filter":"raw"},{"term_id":447,"name":"Niels Bohr Building","slug":"niels-bohr-building","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":447,"taxonomy":"post_tag","description":"","parent":0,"count":13,"filter":"raw"}],"post_format":[],"expression":[{"term_id":15,"name":"News Article","slug":"news_article","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":15,"taxonomy":"expression","description":"","parent":0,"count":11491,"filter":"raw"}],"translation_priority":[]},"featured_media_url":"https:\/\/uniavisen.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/dsc1035nielsbohrjpgweb-1280x853.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/uniavisen.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/61962","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/uniavisen.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/uniavisen.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/uniavisen.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/7"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/uniavisen.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=61962"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/uniavisen.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/61962\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":61977,"href":"https:\/\/uniavisen.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/61962\/revisions\/61977"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/uniavisen.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/53905"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/uniavisen.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=61962"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/uniavisen.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=61962"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/uniavisen.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=61962"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
