Eduardo: an NDA which barred disclosure to the police would doubtless fall in the same category: but an NDA which barred disclosure to the media would not. For my part I would like to see the law clarified so that parties could agree non-disclosure to anyone except the police or the regulator where there is one of the party agreeing - with no back-door exception in the shape of the SRA. If you agree not to disclose to the press you should not be able to get round it by complaining to the SRA about the other party's lawyers.

Oh, and "police or regulator only" should exclude busybody members of either House of Parliament.
