This is the final episode in the second series of The Fountain Court Podcast. The episode is moderated by Stephen Moriarty KC, a senior Fountain Court silk and former Head of Chambers. The episode is a recording of a virtual panel discussion hosted in September 2022 to mark the annual Christopher Bathurst Prizegiving and therefore we apologise for any noise interruptions. The episode features an internationally focused discussion on the topic of ‘Duty of Care and Professional Liability’. This was the topic that this year’s applicants for the Christopher Bathurst Prize were asked to write about. Each panellist discusses recent developments in the law of professional negligence in their jurisdiction, including the circumstances in which a duty of care would be held to arise, the scope of the duty, causation and limitations to recoverable loss. Adopting a comparative law approach, the panel considered recent significant decisions of the Singapore and English courts as well as the position under Australian and Indian law. Joining Stephen in the discussion are: Kanaga Dharmananda SC: Based in Australia, Kanaga is Senior Counsel. He practises from Perth as a door tenant at Fountain Court. He has a broad commercial litigation and arbitration practice, with emphasis on resources, finance, projects, and insolvency matters. Leigh-Ann Mulcahy KC: Leigh-Ann is a silk at Fountain Court.

Siraj Omar SC: Based in Singapore, Siraj is Senior Counsel and Director of Dispute Resolution at Drew & Napier.
