A reminder that today, 1 July, is a big day at COP Towers because: (1)  The remainder of the first round of COPR rule changes come into force today: an unofficial compilation of the amendments with a commentary by Alex can be foundhere; (2) New Practice Directions are in force to accompany the Rules, availablehere; (3) New forms are availablehere (do not misled by the fact some of them suggest that they are the old versions on the link - they are the new forms as can been seen in the top left hand corner of each: check it has 07.15 below the relevant COP1 etc number); and (4)  New LPA forms are availablehere. We are hard at work providing updates here as to how the changes affect the text of the Handbook, so keep checking back over the next week or so for more.
