Citation: EWHC 962 TCC, [2009] EWHC 1666 (TCC), (2009) 25 Const LJ 528, [2009] BLR 425 and [2010] Eu LR 152
Nature of case: The case concerned an application seeking an order for disclosure and inspection of a large number of documents in a claim for breach of the Public Contracts Regulations 2006. The Court had to consider the contention, raised by the Treasury, that disclosure of the documents would damage the public interest and reveal commercially sensitive information. The High Court then rejected the application by the Defendant to strike out an action on limitation grounds by Amaryllis Ltd for damages in relation to alleged breaches of the Public Contracts Regulations 2006.
