Contract Law; Privity and the Rights of Third Parties
Number of pages:
3
ABSTRACT:
This 3 page paper discusses the following statement " by the end of the 1990's the doctrine of privity had few friends, at least that part of it which prevented third parties suing to obtain the benefit which the contracting parties had agreed to confer
on them. There were four principle criticisms levelled against the old Law.... it was therefore no real surprise when the Law Commission (1996) recommendations were finally implemented in the 1999 Act". The paper is written with reference to English law. The bibliography cites 5 sources.
