As from that date, sporting goods manufacturers will be required to offer repair services for defects occurring outside the traditional liability period. Companies will also have to inform consumers about their right to repair and the availability of repair services. ℹ️Full text of the Directive here: https://lnkd.in/eZ3Q9dyx To help our members navigate the key changes and benefits introduced by the #R2RD, we have created a comprehensive infographic👇👇 #RightToRepair #Sustainability #ConsumerRights #FESI #CircularEconomy

Systemic change is needed… RoPA is coming! It is time for a ‘cultural change’ for licensing and qualifications in the property industry says Rebecca Marsh of The Property Ombudsman who spoke before the Industry and Regulation Committee at the House of Lords today. Allison Farrer of National Trading Standards said there needs to be a “Consistency of approach for qualifications and enforcement/regulation” across the numerous diverse disciplines within the property sector when asked about the need for a regulator – one ombudsman. The 2 hour committee meeting heard from current industry Professional bodies such as Propertymark, RICS and The Property Institute as well as LEASE, TPO and National Trading Standards. It was a health debate and in my opinion representative of the issues facing our industry.*1 Timothy Douglas head of policy and campaigns Propertymark, explained that regulatory oversight, licensing and continuous professional development is needed. “Last year the government declared that property managers in the social rental sector must be qualified.” And without such regulation in the private sector, we are creating a “two tier service for consumers.” “Legislative requirements are increasing.” “We are at a crossroads of needing to act.” We currently have the following potential new laws going through Parliament: Renters Reform Bill, the Leasehold and freehold Reform Bill, and the Data Protection and Digital Information Bill which will have far reaching effects on our industry once they become law. In this ever-changing market, one reality remains constant: the importance of remaining compliant and up to date. Now, more than ever, investing in training and adhering to regulatory frameworks is a prerequisite for survival. *1https://lnkd.in/eEEz_fia

A really interesting analysis of the UK Top 50 financial results this year. Beneath the surface of the headline numbers, underlying growth, revenue per lawyer and profitability remain a challenge. This corresponds to what we are hearing in the market from firms - average utilisation has recovered slightly Vs prior year, but still well below the heights of the proceeding years. Many firms are visiting their work allocation model with BigHand, to ensure utilisation and therefore profitability is maximised across teams. Others are working with us on surfacing profitability data to drive financial awareness and better behaviours across the fee earner spectrum.

We had a question today via another of our platforms regarding the replacement of common law when reasonable force can be used! Question: "Does Section 3 authorise the use of reasonable force to prevent any crime or just indictable offences? Also, can you confirm that the common law on when reasonable force can be used has been repealed"? Thanks! Answer: "The Criminal Law Act 1967, Section 3. This section states that a person can use reasonable force in the following circumstances: To prevent crime To effect or assist in the lawful arrest of offenders or suspected offenders To assist in the lawful arrest of persons unlawfully at large. The use of force must be: absolutely necessary for a purpose permitted by law and reasonable and proportionate. Section 3 of the Criminal Law Act 1967 can also be used for summary offences The Human Rights Act 1998 also applies to the use of force, requiring that it must be: proportionate, legal, accountable, and necessary. As far as we are aware: The common law on when reasonable force can be used has not been repealed: Common law The common law recognises the right to use reasonable force in self-defense or to protect others. It also allows for preemptive strikes if circumstances justify it. Hope this helps! #retail #security
