The Court of Appeal has handed down judgment in Disclosure and Barring Service v Tata Consultancy Services Ltd [2025] EWCA Civ 380. The decision provides a pithy summary of the principles of interpretation in the context of a condition precedent (with Coulson LJ giving the lead judgment and a concurring judgment from Lewison LJ). It will be of particular interest to parties and practitioners grappling with notification provisions and whether, in the absence of notice, rights are lost. Stephen Cogley KC, Matthew Lavy KC and Iain Munro acted for the successful respondent.
