| The Demise of the Rule in Rylands v Fletcher?
Fordham, Margaret • [1995] Sing JLS 1 (Jul)This article examines the rule in Rylands v Fletcher, and considers the prospects for its future role in tort law in the light of two recent decisions, one by the House of Lords in England, and one by the High Court of Australia, both of which suggest that its continued existence as a separate tort cannot be justified.

| Recent Developments in Materiality Test of Insurance Contracts
Yeo, Hwee Ying • [1995] Sing JLS 56 (Jul)In insurance law the doctrine of disclosure as expounded by the controversial decision of CTI v Oceanus requires the proposer of an insurance policy to disclose every fact that the underwriter may wish to be aware of during his decision-making process. This has unfortunately been confirmed in the recent House of Lords decision of Pan Atlantic Insurance Company Limited v Pine Top Insurance Company. However, some form of reprieve appears to have been granted since the judgment has also stipulated that it must additionally be shown that the particular insured had been induced before there can be any resort to avoidance.

Crown, Barry • [1995] Sing JLS 75 (Jul)This article discusses the changes made to Singapore's land and trust law by the Application of English Law Act 1993. The focus is on the effects of the "repeal" of the Second Charter of Justice, which imported English common law and pre-1826 English statutes into Singapore. The first part of the article discusses the provisions of the new Act, which replace the pre-1826 English statutory provisions. The second part discusses cases where English statutory provisions have not been replaced by new local legislation.

| Copyright Protection for Traditional Compilations of Facts and Computerized Databases : Is Sweat Copyrightable?
Ng-Loy, Wee Loon • [1995] Sing JLS 96 (Jul)This article looks at the so-called "sweat of the brow" controversy in copyright law. While the US Supreme Court has resolved this controversy by explicitly denying copyright protection to the "sweat of the brow" involved in creating a compilation of facts, it is unclear how this matter will be resolved by the English courts. This article reviews the English cases on compilations of facts, examining how far the English courts have gone in their protection of such works under copyright law. This article also examines the implications of the "sweat of the brow" controversy on the protection of compilations of facts in electronic form, ie, computerized databases.
