There have been at least
five major reviews within the last 50 years comprising two Command Papers – Cmnd 4595
(‘the Ormrod Report’ of 1971) and Cmnd 7648 (‘the Benson Report’ of 1979)) and three
reports by the profession (including one by the short lived Advisory Committ…[Read more]

new peers announced at the beginning of August, compounding fears of a ballooning
house. Among the Bills to be scrutinised are three PMBs suggesting limited and/or
discriminatory reform of the upper chamber. This blog post considers these Bills,…[Read more]

last decade. There have, however, been comparatively few academic studies and such
studies as there have been have largely focussed on personal injury claims. A
compensation culture, if it exists, could extend much wider than that. This article
compares the exp…[Read more]

Her reshuffle was one of the most radical in recent years – dubbed by some as the “the day of the long knives” echoing Macmillan’s brutal reshuffle which took place 54 years before (to the day). However, James Hand argues that that while it…[Read more]
