Disciplinary and Regulatory Proceedings, previously published by Barry Rose Law publishers, is the leading work on this important and dynamic area of law. It is written by leading UK practitioners in the field with considerable experience of tribunals both as chairmen and lawyers defending, prosecuting, and advising upon regulatory enforcement proceedings. Part 1 contains an authoritative narrative dealing with the general principles that apply to all UK regulatory and disciplinary tribunals making this work suitable for lawyers and advisers dealing with a whole range of regulatory and disciplinary work. Part 2 concentrates on the application of the principles and provides guidance on such issues as malicious falsehood, retrospective effect of rule changes, defending a claim, and how to avoid or defuse a claim. This new edition has been substantially revised and developed and includes: coverage of nearly one hundred new cases, many of which deal with the increasingly important application of the Human Rights Act to this area of law; a new chapter dealing with UK healthcare regulation; guidance on data protection and freedom of information; advice for the prosecuting lawyer; and examples of indicative guidance.
