Autumnal greetings from COT.
Now, while we appreciate that this snapshot comes to you
slightly later than our usual monthly updates, this was, in fact,
intentional.
It transpires that many of our readers also subscribe to our
Data Protection team's monthly articles. As a result, we have
taken the view to move the release date of our articles to the
middle of the month, so as to allow our readers sufficient time to
digest the pressing commercial issues before turning their
attention to data protection matters.
With that in mind, please take a minute to prepare a warm
beverage and enjoy...
Just who are these third parties anyway?
We've all seen it – a Contracts (Rights of Third
Parties) Act 1999 clause shoved into a contract, without much
thought as to who these third parties might be and whether the
parties might actually want them to be able to enforce rights under
the contract after all.
