Abstract
The law of vicarious liability has been the subject of a number of critical decisions by the UK Supreme Court in the past decade. This article examines the changes that have been made to this area of law and argues that the most recent decisions of 'WM Morrison Supermarkets plc v Various Claimants' and 'Barclays Bank plc v Various Claimants' signal a retreat from the previous expansionary approach taken by the court.
