What does Model mean? A model is the financial model—usually a spreadsheet-based cash-flow and valuation tool—used to test and evidence the financial viability of a project, development or contract. It is not defined in legislation or case law; it is a descriptive term used across project finance (including PPP/PFI), real estate and planning. In planning practice, a model is often called a viability “toolkit” appraisal and is used to justify affordable housing and other planning obligations (for example, Section 106 agreements in England and Wales, Section 75 agreements in Scotland, Section 76 agreements in Northern Ireland, and planning agreements/Part V arrangements in Ireland).

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.
