Get key information and updates for all practitioners, supplemented with practice area specific Brexit content across the modules. We collate it in our Brexit toolkit and include our Brexit toolkit, tracker and alerts.
We outline the key principles and procedural requirements with a clear focus on the public sector/defendant perspective. The content focusses primarily on judicial review in the Administrative Court in England and Wales.
Failure to stick to procedures can have significant legal, financial and practical consequences for a contracting authority. We guide you through various processes, focussing on the Public Contracts Regulations 2015.
