Claims club - 16 June 2021

16 June 2021

This online event took place on 16 June 2021 and is now available on-demand. The content in this recording was correct as of the original webinar date.

Watch our on-demand video for our popular Claims Club.

We discussed:

Managing the risk of data sharing and inadvertent disclosure
Exploring the risks surrounding data sharing, how to minimise the risks of a breach, and how to respond effectively when a breach arises, with reference to London Borough of Lambeth v AM [2021] where Browne Jacobson acted for the Claimant Authority.
Tackling risk in a changing climate
Climate change and the drive for carbon neutrality remain high on the agenda for legislative change. We consider the proposed changes, compliance with duties and potential risks facing local authorities.
Highways claims: where are we heading?
With a continued drive to reduce traffic on the road network and give road space over to pedestrians and green methods of transport, we reflect on the potential impact on highways claims and the need for authorities to assess a shifting risk.
Legal update
We consider recent important and interesting decisions, bringing you up to date with key issues and cases of interest, as well as what we see on the horizon.
