Gluck v Endzweig and another [2026] EWCA Civ 145 What are the practical implications of this case? This ruling is of immediate relevance to practitioners who draft or advise on arbitration clauses, especially where the nominated forum lies beyond the mainstream of institutional commercial arbitration. A Beth Din, a Sharia panel, or an analogous body may assume an ongoing pastoral or faith-based mandate to revisit its decisions—an assumption that directly clashes with the AA 1996 enforcement architecture. Parties seeking to refer disputes to such forums while still preserving the capacity to enforce any award must recognise that these aims are not invariably compatible. Any contractual power to correct or supplement should be time-limited: AA 1996, s 57(4) offers a sound template, allowing correction within twenty-eight days of the award date, or within any longer period the parties may agree.

ARCHIVED: This archived Practice Note outlines and summarises the data protection regime in place before 25 May 2018 and describes the position under the Data Protection Act 1998 (DPA 1998). It is supplied for background purposes only and therefore is not kept up to date. The Note deals specifically with the DPA 1998’s applicability and territorial reach. When assessing whether the DPA 1998 applies, consider the following key points: the nature of the data being processed—the DPA 1998 strictly applies only to processing of personal data; other information (eg statistical material or data that does not relate to an identifiable person) is outside scope where the data controller is established—the DPA 1998 applies only to data controllers established in the UK who process personal data in the context of that establishment...
ARCHIVED: This Practice note, now archived, offers guidance on the remittance basis charge (RBC). It sets out in detail what counts as a long-term resident before and after 6 April 2017, and looks at how the RBC is paid and reclaimed. It further covers nominating income and gains, the remittance of nominated income and gains, together with the applicable ordering rules. STOP PRESS: Abolition of non-dom regime and introduction of residence-based IHT regime Finance Act 2025 (FA 2025), which secured Royal Assent on 20 March 2025, enacts legislation to abolish the remittance basis of taxation and introduces a residence-based regime beginning on 6 April 2025, with effect from that date.

Further measures include amending the rules for excluded property status, removing protected settlement status for offshore trusts, and revising overseas workday relief provisions. For further information on these reforms, see Practice Notes: The abolition of the remittance basis...
