67 See Ford, in which they were treated prima facie as business relationships. The purpose of this article is to examine the purpose and effect of the purported rule of English law that an agreement supported by consideration is not enforceable as a contract unless there is additional evidence of the intention to create legal relationships. 40-992 (Lord Upjohn). Lord Reid (p. 973) seems to limit the principle to “non-financial” agreements. If the parties are at a distance at the time of their agreement, the courts usually presume the intention to be bound: Merritt v. Merritt, The Times, May 15, 1969Google Scholar; cf. Gould v. Gould [1969] 3 W.L.R. 490.Google Scholar 69 The government announced that the Industrial Relations Act to be published in 1970 provides that collective agreements can only be made legally binding by an express written provision of the agreement (In Place of Strife, Cmnd. 3888, paragraph 46). It does not appear that specific rules are laid down for the interpretation and execution of such agreements.
In addition, it is not clear whether the parties are free to provide that their agreement is a contract, but the ordinary courts do not have jurisdiction: see, for example. B, Czamikow v. Roth, Schmidt & Co. [1922] 2 K.B. 478Google Scholar; and in general Halsbury, , Laws of England (3rd ed.), vol. 9, p. 352Google Scholar, and Leigh v. N.U.R. [1970] 2 W.L.R. 60, 65.Google Scholar 37 I am not claiming that the actual result in this case was wrong.
In fact, there is a lot of praise for the view that there was no motion (in the legal sense) regarding the 1964 agreement. 15 to 350. The “objective” nature of the testamentary test has often been emphasized: Coward v. Motor Insurers` Bureau [1963] 1 Q.B. 259, 271Google Scholar; Connell v. Motor Insurers` Bureau [1969] 2 Q.B. 494, 505Google Scholar; Edwards v Skyways Ltd. [1964] 1 W.L.R. 349, 356.Google Scholar 49 to 273 (and Bowen L.J. to 266 and Lindley L.J. to 271). This approach is also explicit in Licences Insurance Corp.
and Guarantee Fund (Ltd.) v. Lawson (1896) 12 T.L.R. 501 (statements that “in the course of … Argumente und von einer etwas herzlichen Diskussion”) und Dimmock v. Hallett (1866) L.R. 2 Ch.App. 21. A number of other cases mentioned in the books relating to the “intent to create legal relationships” concern, in fact, the interpretation of the alleged promises and the question of the error associated with them: Beesly v.
Hallwood Estates Ltd. [1960] 1 W.L.R. 549, 558 Google Scholar; See British Homophone Ltd. v. Kunz (1935) 152 L.T. 589Google Scholar; Parke v. Daily News Ltd. [1962]Google Scholar Ch.

43 The `language of the contract` used by the parties indicates that the contract is intended. This can be understood to mean that the documents were to be interpreted as containing an undertaking and an application (see Salmon C.J., at p. 45). Compare Booker v. Palmer [1942] 2 All E.R. 674Google Scholar, where the informality of the statement made it impossible to imply a promise. But the absence of formality is not decisive: Parker v. Clark [1960] 1 W.L.R. 286.Google Scholar 65 z.B. Sutton & Shannon on Contracts (6th ed., 1963), p.

The Commonwealth (note 60). 14 There are several cases in which the question has arisen indirectly and the dictates of the case-law are contradictory.

It was not necessary for his seigneury to deal with this argument, but it seems to be based on the very wording of the agreements.
