- Significant recent case law, including Moray Offshore Renewable Power Ltd v BlueFloat Energy UK Holdings Ltd and Roche Diagnostics Ltd v Greater Glasgow Health Board on the economic delicts, Coulter v Anderson, Anderson and Brown LLP on pure economic loss, and McCulloch v Forth Valley Health Board on medical negligence
