The Commission had taken theview that the Damages (Scotland) Act 1976 hadbecome over complex and containedinaccuracies as a result of numerousamendments made over the years. The 2011 Actre-enacts much of the existing law but in a muchmore logical and coherent way.Any solicitor working in personal injury shouldhave a copy of the legislation, its affects and theguidance to help put it into practice.CONTENTS: Annotated version of the Damages(Scotland) Act 2011.
