MASTER WHITAKER AND DISCLOSURE

Out in Singapore with Lord Justice Jackson was Master Whitaker . The speech of the Queens Remembrancer is fully reported on the Chris Dale blog.From my perspective what was interesting was his criticism of senior and yet inept lawyers who fail to understand the very nature of the disclosure exercise , particularly the need to limit it to proportionate boundaries .Fail in this duty and expect harsher penalties in future.
