Ebook Regulating Damages Based Agreements
This paper sets out for consultation proposals to regulate damages based agreements. The consultation is aimed at, in particular, the legal profession, claims management businesses and others who undertake claims using these agreements in England and Wales, but also others with an interest in these funding agreements.
This consultation follows the Government Code of Practice on Consultation and falls within the scope of the Code. The consultation criteria, which are set out on page 43 have been followed.
An Impact Assessment has been completed for the consultation stage and indicates that representatives providing services under damages based agreements, and their clients mainly in the Employment Tribunals are likely to be particularly affected. Comments on the Impact Assessment and the specific questions it contains are particularly welcome. A full Impact Assessment will be produced with the response to this consultation.
