Hi!
3) What is a legal Person
=> The CRA and other EU regulation generally distinguishes natural persons (i.e. humans) and legal persons (i.e companies, foundations, trusts, societies).
However there is a catch - groups of people acting in concert are generally seen as a legal person as well - even if they did not bother to create a society, trust, foundation or company.
So in general - it is fair to assume that one natural person teaming up with another natural person - who then work together towards a common goal is to be seen as a legal person.
The converse is may also be true -- a single natural person who has not created some legal entity is likely out of scope.
We asked about this during a meeting with the Commission last April and were told that in this context "legal person" was intended to include rather than exclude natural persons. Since then I have heard both interpretations used widely so I suspect this is going to need to be one of the points of clarification by the Expert Group.
