Negligence Claims Against Public Bodies (January 2005, Alexander Ruck Keene)
This article was originally published in January 2005 in the New Law Journal.
“On 1 April 2004, the House of Lords handed down judgment in Gorringe v Calderdale MBC [2004] 1 WLR 1057. Although on its facts concerned solely with a failure to act by a statutory body, I argue in this article that it provides an important opportunity to take more general stock of where we stand with respect to private law claims against public bodies.”
