Based on the provided webpage content (which mirrors the attached PDF on potential class members for the A1 Morpeth to Ellingham dualling cancellation) and the chat history detailing outreach strategies, I have compiled a targeted list of companies, associations, organizations, and groups to contact for establishing tort liabilities (e.g., breach of contract for contractors, negligence causing economic loss for businesses, and deterred investment for prospects). This draws from verified victim types: contractors (£10-20m+ losses from terminations and preparatory works), businesses (logistics/manufacturing/retail facing £150m regional harm via supply chain delays and increased costs), and future victims (investors deterred from foregone growth).
I prioritized entities with direct ties to the project, using the PDF’s details and cross-verified via public sources for accuracy (e.g., no updates post-October 2025 on the cocoo.uk page). GDPR limits direct lists, so focus on associations for referrals. Added Costain Group PLC as a confirmed contractor from project records (appointed 2021, impacted by 2024 cancellation with escalated costs from £290m to £500m+). For individuals/homeowners, no named families emerged, but route-specific groups exist. Contact via email first, citing £68.4m sunk costs and £150m economic loss for public interest transparency; request GDPR-compliant referrals or testimonies.

Next steps for tort advancement: Draft outreach emails to these (e.g., to Chamber CEO: reference EIR-00046349 disclosures for evidence of irrationality). If referrals yield prospects, pursue pre-action protocol letters by December 2025 to pressure DfT/National Highways settlements. Verify all via websites before sending.
ALERTAS DE PRODUCTOS SANITARIOS
ESP SEARCH:
UK SEARCH:
>> filter alerts, recalls, and safety communications by date, medical specialism, or other criteria. Additionally, there’s a specific search tool at
for querying alerts. Note that MHRA stopped issuing “Medical Device Alerts” in 2020 but continues with updated safety communications on the same platform. This can help identify product liabilities for Halma items like SunTech monitors in tort claims.
EU SEARCH:
EUDAMED (European Database on Medical Devices) consists of six modules covering aspects like actor registration, UDI/devices, notified bodies/certificates, clinical investigations, vigilance/post-market surveillance, and market surveillance. Public access is available for certain modules (e.g., devices, certificates), allowing searches by fields like manufacturer, model, risk class, UDI-DI, or EMDN codes via the official portal at
or third-party tools like
However, the vigilance module (for safety alerts and incidents) is not fully public and restricted to authorities, with alerts typically disseminated through national agencies rather than a centralized public search. The EU Safety Gate (RAPEX) system at
handles alerts for dangerous non-food products but explicitly excludes medical devices.
