This reference work provides the reader with an up-to-date and extensive overview of the vast amount of primary law relating to judicial review. This important area of law concerns the High Court's function as a watchdog over the decision-making process of public bodies in England and Wales, for example government agencies and public authorities. The handbook is structured around 50 principles which are, in turn, supported and expanded by commentary, cases and supplementary material. The book also contains a case digest of the most important cases and a section reproducing selected legislation and relevant forms. The supplementary materials provided will enable the reader to research in more detail if desired. The 50 principles of judicial review discussed in the book include: high profile; co-operation; power levels; legislative mandate; precedent; deference; floodgates; speed; legislative purpose; reviewability; immunity; exclusivity; standing; discretion and duty; burden of proof; ultra vires; error of law; abuse of power; relevancy/irrelevancy; a fair hearing; remedies; and damages.
