Perhaps in time this list will cease increasing and instead be distilled into a definitive ‘fairness’ test, but without Parliamentary intervention this could just be wishful thinking. The book introduces Jackson as starving, hungry and dirty waiting to eat his hot, steamy pie he had earned. This “ test of fairness” tends to manifest in one of two ways: (i) a prerequisite to sanction that the Court examines in all cases (the “ proactive approach”; see, for example, Re Virgin Atlantic Airways Ltd [2020] EWHC 2376 (Ch), Re Gategroup Guarantee Ltd [2021] EWHC 775 (Ch) and Re Hong Kong Airlines Ltd); or (ii) a ground for challenge which provides a basis for additional Court scrutiny and activates the Court’s discretion to refuse sanction (the “ reactive approach”; see, for example, Re Houst Ltd [2022] EWHC 1941 (Ch), Re Nasmyth Group Ltd and Re The Great Annual Savings Co Ltd). Whilst it may be the case that some form of ‘ just and equitable’ test was initially proposed, but later scrapped, the retention of the ‘ just and equitable’ language in the CIGA 2020 Explanatory Notes has caused considerable confusion in Part 26A cases to date.

Likewise, we should think about the ethical problems we encounter in medicine and try to agree in advance on how to deal with them, using those four principles to help us. The Court has been quick to dismiss the idea that the definitive test for the exercise of the Court’s discretion is one of fairness ( see Re Virgin Active Holdings Ltd [2021] EWHC 1246 (Ch) at [219]-[221]) not least because, without a consistent frame of reference laid out by Parliament, subjective concepts such as ‘ just and equitable’ are notoriously tricky for the Court to deal with, particularly in circumstances where, by its very nature, few receive under a Plan what they would ideally like. In these poems dead creatures (a stuffed bird, a taxidermist’s zebra) and people (a lovable, garrulous old man, a strange, moon-faced woman) come back to life. But let’s also be ready to accept, wherever possible, that if there are very good reasons for doing x and y, and x and y are morally incompatible, that we may need to allow people to use their informed discretion and moral judgement in that instance.These references to ‘ just and equitable’ may simply have been a hangover from the initial drafting of CIGA 2020. Boliver proposes that the ‘meritocratic equality of opportunity model’ should be supplanted by a ‘meritocratic equity of opportunity model’ which prioritises distributive over procedural fairness.

i) where creditors would receive no payment or have no economic interest in the company in the event of the relevant alternative, little or no weight is to be paid to their views (see Re Virgin Active Holdings Ltd at [266]; Re Houst Ltd at [27]; Re GAS Co. The Court has even gone so far as to expressly cite the “ test of fairness” as part of the sanction process (see Re Amicus Finance Plc (in administration) [2021] EWHC 3036 (Ch) at [40-45]; Re Hong Kong Airlines Ltd [2022] EWHC 3210 (Ch) at [48-50]; and Re SGB-SMIT GmbH [2023] EWHC 2551 (Ch) at [15] and [26]). PLEASE NOTE: From 1st of July 2021, shipments from the UK to EU countries will be subject to Value Added Tax (VAT) charges. That way they'll know what is expected of them (and hopefully at least) they'll be less rows over what's fair and what isn't. It seems apparent from these cases that fairness, whilst still considered and ruled upon by the Court, is perhaps scrutinised less in the absence of creditor opposition, coming back to the notion confirmed early on in Part 26A’s lifetime that “ properly informed creditors who have sufficient time to consider the proposal and voting at a fairly conducted meeting are very likely to be the best judges of their own commercial interests” (see Re Pizza Express Financing 2 Plc [2020] EWHC 3933 (Ch) at [17], which referred back to Lindley LJ’s guidance in Re English, Scottish and Australian Charter Bank (1893) 3 Ch 385).Trying to get your child to focus on doing the ‘right' thing rather than becoming overly preoccupied with fairness will help them to develop maturity, and help them become better at handling these sorts of situations. An elderly woman sits on a deckchair by a Riverside Theatre sign; a billboard advertises “The Old Time Marionettes”. The book is set in victorian England and is an excellent book to read aloud in a class of 7-9 year olds. It’s important to talk about this now because our health service is being actively dismantled – and we need to be crystal clear about what we stand for if we’re going to try to preserve all that’s good about the NHS.

She would also greatly influence Garfield's writing, giving him suggestions for his writing, including the original idea for Smith.

Last week, I heard a chef in a TV cookery competition admit 'If I don't up my game I'm going home, to be fair'.There are loads of activities you could do with this book, there is also a 'read and respond' teacher book available for more ideas and photocopiable worksheets. He often thinks back to a young woman who came to reception cradling what she said was an abandoned baby she’d found. That's partly about control and convenience; rather than commit to a negotiation, you can just send off your question and now it's up to someone else to deal with. The woman passes sightseers lining the Thames embankment at Terrace Walk; and the Eldorado Ice-Cream pavilion, which is approached by the second man.
