    • The Consumer Protection Act 1987–The State of the Art Defence
    • For some ten years the defence has been criticised as an unduly generous interpretation of the formula adopted by the Directive. The UK provision was condemned as a transparent attempt to attenuate the scheme envisaged by the European Council. The ECJ, however, took a different view, endorsing the UK provision in a surprisingly expansive ruling that will serve to limit the scope of product liability at the point of exploitation of technology thresholds. Significantly perhaps, in the light of the above comments regarding the modus operandi of the ECJ, the judgment handed down was terse and formalistic, confined to a barren extrapolation of basic principle and largely devoid of supportive reasoning.
