Abstract: The only form of group litigation recognized by the Singapore Rules of Court at present is the representative action. The adequacy of the procedure, and the possible introduction of a wider group/class action mechanism, is being considered. The litigation in Tan Chin Seng & Others v. Raffles Town Club Pte Ltd [2002] SGHC 278 (High Court) and Tan Chin Seng and Others v. Raffles Town Club Pte Ltd (No 2) [2003] 3 SLR 307 (Court of Appeal) provides a useful example of representative proceedings and will be considered.
