Let's Talk Shop Spring 2019
AWARE12/06/2019
Welcome to the Spring issue of our regular update for the retail sector.
This time around we provide a handy guide to protective equipment and employers' duties and discuss the potential impact of the increasing number of litigants in person.
We also provide an update on the Civil Liability Act, share analysis on market affairs and take a look at claiming back costs when you have been brought into proceedings by another defendant.
Finally I’d like to thank Dame Mary Perkins for taking the time to chat with us on a variety of subjects, including her views as co-founder of Specsavers on the future of the high street.

The Civil Liability Bill becomes an act
The Bill received Royal Assent on 20 December 2018. This confirms the framework for the whiplash reforms, changes the process for a regular review of the personal injury discount rate, and started the clock ticking on the first review of the rate. So what now...
