Supply definition

What does Supply mean? Supply describes the provision of goods, services or rights by one party to another for consideration. In UK VAT law it is a defined term: Value Added Tax Act 1994, s.5(2)(a) states that “supply includes all forms of supply”, and s.5 distinguishes between a supply of goods and a supply of services, with deeming rules (such as self-supplies). In Ireland, the Value-Added Tax Consolidation Act 2010 similarly defines supply of goods and supply of services on a broad basis.

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...
