What started off as another quiet week has certainly ended with a bang.

The big story of the week was the publication of the eagerly anticipated Law Commission Report on Matrimonial Property Needs and Agreements. The report has dominated the media Twitter and blogosphere since it came out. We have three excellent pieces on the report all of which deserve to be read.

We have Hayley Trim's excellent breakdown and David Hodson's critical assessment of the report. We also decided to make an exclusive extract of Professor Elizabeth Cook's Law Commissioner for England and Wales article available on our website. It is available to read here.
