Specifically, children of EU nationals had residence rights under Article 12 of Regulation 1612/68 (later Article 10 of Regulation 492/2011). Their third‑country national parents held residence rights only where their presence was required for the child. CJEU case law acknowledged and reinforced those derivative entitlements. Nonetheless,...

Fertré v Vale of White Horse District Council (The3million Ltd Secretary of State for Housing Communities and Local Government; Independent Monitoring Authority for the Citizens’ Rights Agreements; Shelter, the National Campaign for Homeless People Ltd and The Aire Centre, intervening) [2025] EWCA Civ 1057 What are the practical implications of this case? The Court of Appeal reiterated the divide between domestic residence rules and those under EU law, finding that Pre-Settled Status is a matter of UK law. Pre-Settled Status goes further than the EU residence rights framework. The pool of EU citizens eligible for Pre-Settled Status includes those who have EU residence rights by complying with the Citizens’ Rights Directive 2004/38/EC, but also those who do not meet the Directive and therefore lack such EU rights. In this case, the appellant held only Pre-Settled Status and had no enforceable EU right of residence beyond the first three months, so was not entitled to local authority housing. However, some with Pre-Settled Status also possess enforceable EU residence rights...

STOP PRESS: On 21 July 2019, Prospectus Regulation (EU) 2017/1129 became fully effective across EU member states, and the Prospectus Directive was repealed. The Regulation now sets out when a prospectus must be published for an offer of securities to the public in the UK, or for the admission of securities to trading on a regulated market in the UK. To reflect this, the FCA has brought the FCA Handbook into line with the Regulation by removing the Prospectus Rules in their entirety and substituting the Prospectus Regulation Rules sourcebook. For more detail, see Practice Note: The UK Prospectus Regulation—essentials [Archived] and The UK Prospectus Regulation—is a prospectus required? [Archived].

In October 2021, countries participating in the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD)/G20 Inclusive Framework on Base Erosion and Profit Shifting (BEPS) (the OECD Inclusive Framework) endorsed a ‘two-pillar’ package addressing the tax issues stemming from the digitalisation of the global economy. The two pillars constitute an ambitious effort to reform and modernise international tax rules that allocate where, and how, profits are taxed. Pillar One is chiefly (though not exclusively) aimed at the digital economy: ‘a world where enterprises can effectively be heavily involved in the economic life of different jurisdictions without any significant physical presence and where new and often intangible value drivers increasingly come to the fore’. Pillar One introduces two elements: a new taxing right that stretches beyond traditional tax nexus rules anchored in physical location (Amount A) a standardised methodology for transfer pricing baseline marketing and distribution activities between related parties (Amount B). This Practice Note provides a high-level summary of: the tax...

On 31 January 2020 (exit day), the UK stopped being an EU Member State and forfeited its right to take part in the EU’s political bodies and governance frameworks. Under the transitional measures in Part 4 of the Withdrawal Agreement, exit day began an 11-month implementation phase during which, for many purposes, the EU treated the UK as though it remained a Member State. The implementation phase continued until 11...

Can the tenant claim its costs from the landlord? There is no general statutory right for a tenant to recover its costs from the landlord. Any ability to do so would depend on the wording of the lease, which must be reviewed to see whether it grants such an entitlement in this scenario. In practice, it would be unusual for a lease to contain a provision of this nature. It is also unclear on the information given in this Q&A whether the inspection was carried out solely by the tenant to determine if a breach had occurred, or whether it was arranged by the landlord, with the tenant required to attend to provide access to an unmanned site...

Under section 146 of the Law of Property Act 1925 (LPA 1925), a landlord cannot enforce a leasehold right of forfeiture unless a notice—commonly known as a 'section 146 notice'—is first served on the tenant. There are specific requirements governing the contents of that notice. See Practice Note: Forfeiture of a lease. Under LPA 1925, s 146(11), the obligation to give notice does not extend to 're-entry or forfeiture or relief in case of non-payment of rent'...

This query raises the effect of a notice of claim to exercise the right to manage under Part 2 of the Commonhold and Leasehold Reform Act 2002 (CLRA 2002) being withdrawn. Although the grounds for withdrawal are unknown, the parties’ rights and duties under CLRA 2002 remain unchanged. Under CLRA 2002, s 71(1), the right to manage the premises is conferred on a company incorporated for that function. Such an entity is termed a right to manage (RTM) company (CLRA 2002, s 73(1)). Only one RTM company may exist at a time, and where the freehold of the managed premises becomes vested in that company, it stops being an RTM company (CLRA 2002, s 73(4)–(5)). Holders of long leases within the building may join the RTM company (CLRA 2002, ss 74–75). These individuals are described as qualifying tenants. To assert the right to manage, the RTM company must serve a ‘claim notice’ (CLRA 2002, s 79(1)). Prior to doing so, at least 14 days in advance, the RTM company...
