    The AdLaw Insights Podcast, with Brinsley & Geraint (Ep 6): Green claims

    In this episode, Brinsley and Geraint examine the ‘will-they, won’t they’ saga that is the Green Claims Directive. They consider the landscape around green claims in the UK and EU in light of these latest developments, and explore the potential impact on businesses of all sizes… and the political controversies sprouting around the ‘on-again, off-again’ Green Claims Directive. They also check whether the UK regulations, including the DMCC Act, are taking root – and consider the implications for companies making environmental claims in the UK. When it comes to green claims, not everything is as rosy (or green) as it seems.

    Pay Attention Episode 12: Pay Transparency in Sweden - No Cow on the Ice?

    Sweden has been running annual pay surveys since 1994 — so are they ahead of the curve, or just assembling the directive with their own set of instructions? Tom and David are joined by Jenny Hellberg from Elmzell Advokatbyrå to unpack Sweden’s draft implementation of the Pay Transparency Directive. From strained IKEA metaphors to real-life enforcement mechanisms, they explore categorisation, union cooperation, and whether this famously egalitarian nation is really as flat-packed and ready as it seems. Pour yourself a strong fika-style coffee and tune in.
