Practice notes

FORTHCOMING DEVELOPMENT :

Under the Pension Schemes Act 2021, a secondary Notifiable events regime is being brought in (pursuant to section 69A of the Pensions Act 2004), focused on specified employer‑related notifiable events connected to a DB scheme. The regime obliges employers to copy the trustees into any notification sent to the Pensions Regulator and to furnish both the trustees and the Pensions Regulator with an accompanying statement (also referred to as a declaration of intent) setting out details of the notifiable event and how any detriment to the scheme will be mitigated.

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...
