Conflicts of interest and values in the construction process

The law is and should be connected to values which constitute its basis. The reference to values is also significant in Building Law, in which the legislator has regulated the issues of the construction process. The subject of the article is the analysis of the values and interests underlying the construction process, indi-cating the possibility of conflicts in this regard, while the aim is to indicate ways to resolve these conflicts and to demonstrate the nature of the provisions of Building Law in this regard.Based on the analysis of the provisions of Building Law, it should be noted that the catalogue of values sub-ject to protection in the construction process is very wide. However, the will to ensure the safety of constructed and used buildings, and consequently the safety of people and property, shall be considered the most important value. Due to the fact that these values may collide in the construction process, their protection requires public administration authorities to weigh them from the point of view of protecting the interests of an individual and the public interest. The preventive nature of the provisions of Building Law is to aid this.Unfortunately, the above does not result directly from the provisions of the Act of 7 July 1994 - Building Law, however it may be interpreted from the provisions of the Act, which the legal dogmatic method and the analysis of jurisprudence and literature, which the analysis of the title issue was based on, prove to be helpful with.
