RECTIFICATION OF CONTRACTS

November 14th, 2024 by James Goudie KC

In NATIONAL UNION OF RAIL MARITIME AND TRANSPORT WORKERS v TYNE AND WEAR PASSENGER TRANSPORT EXECUTIVE (2024) UKSC 37 the Supreme Court considers the nature of rectification. The basic role of rectification is not to correct mistakes in transactions. It is to correct mistakes in recording transactions. It is not confined to documents of particular types. It may be refused if granting it would unfairly prejudice third party rights.
