Description
This title provides an essential analysis of the development of the law and practice of Competition Collective Actions in the UK.
The Consumer Rights Act 2015 (the 'CRA') introduced a seismic change to the UK's litigation landscape by providing a route for large scale group litigation to take place on behalf of UK consumers. As a result of these changes individuals harmed by infringements of competition law are now automatically included in a collective/group litigation whose interests are represented by a single individual – the Class Representative.
This title introduces readers to the Collective Actions Regime by providing a comprehensive analysis of the relevant cases, procedural developments and policy objectives of the CRA and the implications of these on consumers, access to justice, litigation funders and businesses.
The book concludes by considering the potential ramifications of the current claims on the development of UK competition law and where the Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act and the potential expansion of the Competition Collective Actions regime to a wider range of mass torts might see the UK heading.
This title is included in Bloomsbury Professional's Practice and Procedure online service.
