This brand new updating supplement, written in the same precise and authoritative style for which Bellamy & Child is famous, brings the Main Work up to date and incorporates both the first supplement as well as all subsequent substantive developments. It is an essential purchase for all who already own the Main Work, and maintains its currency. The supplement contains paragraph by paragraph updating of the Main Work, indicating changes to the law arising from recent legislative and case law developments. These are not limited to referring only to the name of the case or new legislative instrument but describe in an appropriate level of detail the significance of the development. New legislation covered includes The Vertical Agreements block exemption and Guidelines; the new block exemptions for specialisation and R&D agreements and the Horizontal Cooperation Guidelines. A full update as to case law is also provided including coverage of the Court of Justice's judgment in Alrosa concerning the role of third parties in the Commission's commitments procdure; the judgment of the General Court in the AstraZeneca case analysing asymmetric markets and abusive behavious relating to intellectual property rights; and recent decisions of the English High Court and Competition Appeal Tribunal.
