With organisations increasingly relying on AI technology, UK and EU regulators are turning their attention to effective regulation of AI in an effort to recognise its benefits while instilling confidence in individuals that the increasing use of AI is being deployed appropriately and lawfully. In the EU, the European Commission’s AI Act (“Act”) proposal has undergone further changes following review by EU member states. The Council of the EU approved a compromise version of the Act on 6 December 2022. The European Parliament is expected to vote on the draft by the end of March 2023, with a view to adopting the Act by the end of 2023.

The UAE Agency Law which has been in place since 1981 has been repealed and replaced by a new law, Federal Law No. 3 of 2022 Regulating Commercial Agencies which comes into force on 16 June 2023. The new law still provides protection for agents against the termination of the agency contract, which goes beyond the terms of the contract. However, this protection has been reduced and now provides greater balance between principals and agents. The de facto exclusivity which agents had under the old law continues under the new law.
