infoPaul Stothard, 'The Right to a Fair Trial and The Arbitration Act 1996: Apparent Conflicts Leave the English Courts Unmoved' (2008) 29 Business Law Review, Issue 1, pp. 2–6 Parties to commercial arbitration agreements may adopt procedures that apparently con.ict with the right to a fair trial provided for in Article 6 of the European Convention of Human Rights. This has led to a number of attempts by disgruntled parties to undermine either the arbitration agreement or, having lost the arbitration, the award itself on the basis of arguments regarding Article 6. The English courts have followed European jurisprudence that established that Article 6 is deemed a waiver of Article 6 rights, the leading case being Stretford v Football Association Ltd. Recent judgments following Stretford have served only to strengthen the authority of the Arbitration Act 1996 and the principle of party autonomy that lies at the heart of arbitration.Copyright © 2008 Kluwer Law InternationalAll rights reservedISSN: 0143-6295ID: BULA2008001	'Computers and Internet “Oops I Did It Again!”', David Flint, Issue 1, pp. 7–9

What legal protection is there for him in this business world? This article discusses and outlines the new spamming laws, which balance the privacy of an individual and the business world of advertising.Copyright © 2008 Kluwer Law InternationalAll rights reservedISSN: 0143-6295ID: BULA2008007	'Computers and Internet “Burning at the Stake”', David Flint, Issue 2, pp. 31–33

A key contributory solution, as advocated by the UN Convention of Biological Diversity and Millenium Ecosystem Assessment is to change the way people and businesses behave towards the environment through introducing “economic incentives for biodiversity” (EIBs). These EIBs begin to reflect the true value of the environment, and are now being adopted worldwide with significant implications for businesses. The overall objective of a series of four articles to be published over the next four months is to explore the literature relevant to the extent to which the development of economic incentives for biodiversity is likely to be an opportunity or risk for extractive and water companies over the next five to 10 years. This first article begins the investigation by outlining the links between business and biodiversity. Subsequent articles will explain what economic incentives for biodiversity are, indicate some of the associated implications of climate change, and highlight what strategies companies can adopt to best deal with environmental and biodiversity issues and the development of EIBs.Copyright © 2008 Kluwer Law InternationalAll rights reservedISSN: 0143-6295ID: BULA2008013	'Computers and Internet “Sharing a secret”', David Flint, Issue 3, pp. 64–65

infoSimon Clarke, Maura McIntosh, 'Class Actions: Are We Moving Towards an Opt–out Regime?' (2008) 29 Business Law Review, Issue 5, pp. 114–116 Summary There appears to be a growing momentum toward the introduction of an “opt–out” regime for pursuing litigation on behalf of a number of parties who share similar grievances: so–called “class actions”. A Research Paper by Professor Rachael Mulheron,which was commissioned by the Civil Justice Council (CJC) and published on 8 February 2008, has concluded that: (a) there is a need for reform of collective redress mechanisms in English civil procedure; and (b) this need should be filled by the introduction of an “opt–out” regime, whereby an action can be pursued on behalf of a class of unnamed, or even unidentified, claimants who are deemed included in the action unless they have specifically opted out. The Paper has however consciously avoided consideration of either: (i) the actual design of such a regime; and (ii) importantly, how litigation conducted pursuant to such a regime should be funded and how costs should be dealt with, including to what extent the current costs shifting rules should be retained. The CJC commissioned the Paper as part of its investigation into whether initiatives should be proposed to improve collective redress mechanisms. The CJC is expected to make recommendations to the Ministry of Justice on this matter during 2008.Copyright © 2008 Kluwer Law InternationalAll rights reservedISSN: 0143-6295ID: BULA2008025	'Computers and Internet “Is the game changing ... or just the rules?”', David Flint, Issue 5, pp. 117–118

infoDavid Mayhew, 'Likely Paths of a More Active Regulator' (2008) 29 Business Law Review, Issue 9, pp. 194–199 The Legal Services Act 2007 introduces a new regulatory regime for lawyers. Since January 2007 solicitor regulation has been in the hands of the Solicitors Regulation Authority. On 1 July the much awaited Solicitors’ Code of Conduct came into force. The SRA talks of a risk based approach to regulation and has emphasised the need for transparency over, for example, its enforcement actions, concepts familiar to lawyers in financial services regulation. This paper sketches out the new regime and explores the parallels with financial services regulation and practice to identify where the SRA is heading, drawing on experience with not only financial services, but also solicitors disciplinary matters.Copyright © 2008 Kluwer Law InternationalAll rights reservedISSN: 0143-6295ID: BULA2008044	'Computers and Internet “Bye–buy Baby Buy By”', David Flint, Issue 9, pp. 200–201

infoPeter Yeoh, 'From Wall Street to High Street: Going for a Free Lunch?' (2008) 29 Business Law Review, Issue 11, pp. 250–252 Opinions are now divided on whether the the Federal National Mortgage Association (or ‘Fannie’) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (or ‘Freddie’) should remain in their present form, putting a lot of taxpayers’money at risk. The bailing–out role now played by the Federal Reserve has been sternly criticised and it has been questioned whether this should be allowed to go on and on in the foreseeable future, transforming US capitalism into social capitalism. The event has also affected the UK capital market, with serious erosion of market capitalisation. But, is the UK home market an innocent bystander in the whole scheme of things?

As the market is unregulated, many projects generating carbon credits have sprung up and this has brought with it associated advantages and disadvantages,which are also discussed.Copyright © 2008 Kluwer Law InternationalAll rights reservedISSN: 0143-6295ID: BULA2008055	'Computers and Internet Meanwhile...away from the Crunch...', David Flint, Issue 11, pp. 259–261

infoPeter Yeoh, '‘Shorties’ and Casino Capitalism' (2008) 29 Business Law Review, Issue 12, pp. 287–288 Short sales are effected when sellers sell securities they do not own. They have to effect delivery with equivalent borrowed securities. Naked short sales occur when sellers sell securities they do not own and have not make arrangements to borrow for delivery within the standard three–day settlement period. UK and US financial regulators have reacted with emergency measures in response to what appeared to be predatory short–selling of banking and financial stocks. The latter is blamed for the accentuating of the on–going financial crisis on both sides of the Atlantic. Whilst the US Securities Exchange Commission responded with prescriptive actions, the UK Financial Services Authority relied on a one–off disclosure approach. Both claimed success for arresting the possible manipulative price decline of particularly sensitive banking and financial stocks and in particular those undertaking crucial rights issue for balance sheet enhancement. But were ‘shorties’ being made scapegoats?Copyright © 2008 Kluwer Law InternationalAll rights reservedISSN: 0143-6295ID: BULA2008061	'COMPUTERS AND INTERNET; Something for the Holidays?', David Flint, Issue 12, pp. 289–290

infoRavi Chandran, 'Restraint of Trade: A Singapore Perspective' (2008) 29 Business Law Review, Issue 12, pp. 382–386 The position in Singapore with regards to restraint of trade clauses in employment contracts is largely similar to the position in the United Kingdom. Nonetheless, while the authorities in the United Kingdom are divided on the validity of “non–poaching of employees” type of restraint of trade clauses, the very recent Singapore Court of Appeal decision of Man Financial (S) Pte Ltd v Wong Bark Chuan, David has endorsed the validity of such clauses whole heartedly after an extensive review of authorities from the United Kingdom, Hong Kong and Australia. In addition the court in Man Financial (S) Pte Ltd v Wong Bark Chuan had the opportunity to consider several other related issues such as the significance of the fact that the employee was specifically paid for entering into the restrictive covenant, the significance of the fact that the employee had expressly agreed to the restrictive covenant and the significance of fact that the employee received legal advice in relation to the restrictive covenant.Copyright © 2008 Kluwer Law InternationalAll rights reservedISSN: 0143-6295ID: BULA2008060 You need Acrobat Reader version 6.0 or later to read PDF files.
