1. What is the applicable legislation? There is no designated Lebanese foreign direct investment (FDI) law. Instead, provisions governing foreign investment in Lebanon can be found in the Investment Law 360/2001 (Investment Law 2001), which applies equally to foreign and domestic investors alike. The Investment Law 2001 is primarily an investment promotion tool that includes incentives for investment in Lebanon. It does not establish any oversight authorities or restrictions for foreign investment. Such restrictions can be found in several other laws, including the Law on the Lebanese Code of Commerce 304/1942 (Code of Commerce 1942), the Law on Publications 1962, the Gun Laws of Lebanon 137/1959 (as amended), and the Law on Foreign Acquisition of Real Property 296/2001. In addition, the Code of Money and Credit governs capital movements and banking activities, and sector-specific legislation may impose further limitations depending on the nature of the investment. 2. Which government or other body (or bodies) reviews foreign investments? Foreign Investment in Lebanon is generally overseen by the Investment Development Authority

NOTE—to see whether notification thresholds in Lebanon and throughout the world are met, see Where to Notify. 1. Have there been any recent developments regarding the Lebanese merger control regime and are any updates/developments expected in the coming year? Are there any other ‘hot’ merger control issues in Lebanon? In early 2022, Lebanon enacted its first comprehensive competition law with the adoption of Law 281/2022 on the Competition Law (Competition Law 2022), which came into effect on 17 March 2022. The Competition Law 2022 marks the first comprehensive competition legislation ever implemented in Lebanon and introduced a comprehensive antitrust and merger control regime in the country. Prior to the Competition Law 2022 entering into force, there was no standalone or designated competition law in Lebanon. Instead, competition matters were regulated by a few, rudimentary provisions spread out over several laws, such as Law 34-67/1967 on Commercial Agencies, Law 73-83/1983 on Acquisition of Goods and Agricultural Crops, and Resolution 2385/1924 on Industrial Property Rights. However, none established a merger control regime. Lebanon introducing the Competition

This Practice Note explores projects which involve legacy IT systems, the background to such legacy IT refresh projects (focusing particularly on the financial services sector and technology refresh through non-transformational outsourcing, cloud based solutions and software development/integration), and the issues and practical points to be considered with respect to each. Technology refresh refers to the adoption of newer or enhanced technology in substitution for incumbent IT products and systems, often to maintain capabilities, introduce new or added functionality, improve performance and efficiency, keep up with technological advancements (the state of the art) or to address other changing needs or requirements (such as operational transformation and process change in the business). Where the old IT systems host or process a significant amount of data, the migration of that data and related data integrity and security issues will be a significant factor to be considered as part of the refresh project. Background to legacy IT refresh projects Technology refresh plays an important role in allowing companies to drive efficiencies, reduce

This Practice Note covers the limited circumstances in which Legal Aid Agency funding is available for clinical negligence claims. Background The Access to Justice Act 1999 (AJA 1999) established the Legal Services Commission (LSC), the body which came into being on 1 April 2000 to replace the Legal Aid Board. The Act also established the Community Legal Service (CLS). It provided that legal service providers (in the case of clinical negligence, solicitors) who were members of the CLS could, subject to eligibility criteria, obtain public funding for clients in civil matters (other than those matters excluded under AJA 1999, Sch 2). AJA 1999, Sch 2 provided that CLS funding was not to be granted in relation to allegations of negligently caused injury, death or damage to property. Importantly however, allegations relating to clinical negligence were excluded from this provision. Therefore it remained the case that, subject to satisfying eligibility tests, a clinical negligence claim could still attract public funding after 1 April 2000. However, the Legal Aid, Sentencing and
