Proportionality....which rules will apply?

twitter icon

When proceedings have not been issued and work has been carried out pre and post 1st April 2013, the old proportionality test will apply to the work done pre 1st April 2013 and the new proportionality test to work done post 1st April 2013. When proceedings have been issued pre 1st April 2013 the old proportionality test applies to all work. When proceedings have been issued post 1st April 2013 and work was carried out prior to this date, the old proportionality test applies to work done pre 1st April 2013 and the new proportionality test to work done post 1st April 2013.
