Regina (Amro International SA and another) v Financial Services Authority and others – WLR Daily
“Co-operation between national financial regulators was of the greatest importance, particularly where there were suspicions or allegations of fraud. The Financial Services Authority was entitled to assist the US Security and Exchange Commission in a share fraud investigation without subjecting its request for help to critical examination. The FSA was required only to comply with the requirements of statute, and the terms of memoranda of understanding were immaterial. There was no requirement to provide notice under s 170(2) of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000.”

Gibson and others v Sheffield City Council [2010] EWCA Civ 63; [2010] WLR (D) 47
“In an equal pay claim, it was open to an employer to avoid the need for objective justification of a pay disparity if he could show that, even if the pay practice had an adverse impact on women, that practice was not tainted by sex discrimination under s 1(3) of the Equal Pay Act 1970, so that the obligation to justify the disparity objectively did not arise. However, the application of that proposition was limited and merely because there was an explanation for the difference in pay which was not directly discriminatory did not necessarily mean that the pay practice was not tainted by sex.”
