These changes came into force generally on 7 February 2018. Other amendments were made to Practice Directions 8A, 59, 60, 66, 75 and Business & Property Courts.

Part 30 (Transfer) - updated to include commentary on the transfer of cases in the Business & Property Courts Part 44 (General Rules About Costs) - commentary on Rule 44.2 (Court's Discretion as to Costs) has been revised to incorporate commentary from Rule 44x.3 (as it stood pre-April 1, 2013), in particular that relating to Conduct of Parties and Types of Costs Orders; Part 52 (Appeals) includes new guidance on scope of 'appellant' and appeal where a witness wishes to challenge adverse comment in judgment from In Re W (A Child) (Care Proceedings: Non Party Appeal) [2016] EWCA Civ 1140; [2017] 1 W.L.R. 2415 and clarification of the test for permission to appeal where appeal seeks to challenge findings of fact: The Mayor and Burgesses of the London Borough of Haringey v Ahmed & Ahmed [2017] EWCA Civ 1861; Awards of Interest - the topic of Interest has been drawn together from various Parts and Sections in the book and a new section created. Cross-references to it will be included in other relevant Parts, such as Parts 7, 12, 14, 36 and 40. Commentary on Interest on Costs stays in Part 44.
