Requirements definition

What does Requirements mean? In Development Consent Order (DCO) practice, Requirements are the binding conditions that regulate how, when and on what detailed terms the authorised development may proceed. They typically oblige the undertaker to submit and secure approval of detailed design, construction, and environmental management documents (for example, CEMP, traffic, landscape, contamination and archaeology plans) before commencement, phased works or operation. The term is used in legislation: section 120 of the Planning Act 2008 permits a DCO to impose “requirements”. In most DCOs they are set out in a schedule (often Schedule 2) and function similarly to planning conditions under the Town and Country...

Practice notes

In accordance with Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006 (CA 2006)

Under Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006 (CA 2006), every company must prepare accounts; however, the precise statutory obligations for those accounts differ with the company’s status and size for the particular financial year. To determine these obligations, several overlapping classifications are employed for statutory purposes. These categories do overlap to some extent. A company can be quoted or unquoted; if unquoted, it may fall within the Micro-entity, small, or Medium-sized company categories. Where the micro-entities or small companies regimes apply, the accounting Requirements are markedly lighter than those otherwise imposed (ie, those applicable to a larger unquoted company). By contrast, the reliefs available under the medium-sized companies regime are at present very limited indeed. Eligibility for the micro, small or medium-sized company regimes does not compel use; adopting them is optional. In practice, most eligible small companies choose to adopt the small companies regime in preference to the fuller requirements...

Tomlin orders in England and Wales: CPR guidance on drafting, confidentiality, approval, variation, enforcement, limitation, CCA issues, court-specific requirements, sample wording and precedents

This Practice Note This Practice Note reviews mechanisms used in settling litigation. A Tomlin order consists of a consent order paired with a schedule. It operates to stay proceedings on terms that have been agreed. The provisions contained in the schedule may remain confidential. This Practice Note describes the scope of confidentiality attaching to the schedule and sets out how it differs from a standard consent order. Sample wording for a Tomlin order is included, alongside links to precedents, as well as guidance on court approval. It also addresses varying, setting aside and enforcing a Tomlin order, including the considerations the court will take into account when handling applications for each. Further guidance is provided on interpreting and applying the relevant provisions of the CPR; however, some courts and divisions impose very specific requirements for both drafting and approval, and for approaching the schedule and confidentiality issues. Accordingly, you must consider the particular rules and court guide provisions in the forum where your claim is proceeding when drawing up the Tomlin order...
