Overview Joint ventures cover a wide spectrum of commercial arrangements, from merger-style integrations to co-operation confined to particular functions such as production, distribution, or research and development ( R& D). This questionnaire seeks sufficient detail about the joint venture’s activities to enable an initial assessment of whether it is a full-function joint venture for the purposes of the EU Merger Regulation ( Council Regulation No 139/2004 on the control of concentrations between undertakings). If it is a full-function venture with an EU dimension (meaning the turnover thresholds are satisfied), the joint venture must be notified to the European Commission (the Commission) and cannot proceed until the Commission has found it compatible with the internal market. If the joint venture is not full-function and operates as a partnership that is, to a large extent, dependent on its parent companies, the...

STOP PRESS: On 19 June 2025, the Data ( Use and Access) Bill secured Royal Assent, transforming into the Data ( Use and Access) Act 2025 ( DUAA 2025), with partial commencement on that very same day. A number of DUAA 2025 provisions, covering areas like handling data subject access requests and granting powers to make additional regulations, took effect immediately on 19 June 2025. Other related provisions, relating to Information Commissioner notices and certain aspects of law enforcement processing, commenced on 19 August 2025 (being two months from the date of Royal Assent). The majority of DUAA 2025’s measures still require further regulations, in the form of statutory instruments, to be made in order to bring them fully into force. Parts 5 and 6 of DUAA 2025 serve to amend several facets of data protection and e Privacy law in the UK,...

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...
